Giving away a Kerry Wood signed Red Bill to celebrate the victory! Quote tweet #TeamRedBill to enter. Winner picked tomorrow at 1:20pm central. Must be following to win.
My first ever autograph as a 8 year old! Remember leaving the Clubhouse at County Stadium on a game night & he was standing outside. I had gotten some Bazooka bubble gum & a ball and Pete signed it as I left. Unfortunately, I didn't appreciate that night as much as I should've!
Pete Vuckovich was pitching with a torn rotator cuff. He was throwing in a lot of pain but the Brewers were in a pennant race. He got a cortisone shot, two days later, he threw 11 innings and 173 pitches and beat the Red Sox
Congrats to Muskego alum Bradyn Horn and the rest of the Panthers! Guarantee Mom & Dad Horn were just as excited as the players! #UWM#Panthers#Horner

@BigMoron25 Not having Stueber, arguably their #2/#3 Pitcher, for Regionals was too much to overcome in my opinion... Can hide losing a position player or bullpen arm, but when you lose a weekend starter in Regional setting, you're now relying on multiple bullpen arms to all be effective.
@Dougie0045 Interesting...
So, honest question since you might know... What is the advantage that is trying to be gained since players know it's not legal?
Been around the game for quite some time, but can't say I've ever heard of hitters putting pine tar on their barrels, even George Brett.
That said, no surprise Coach Vodenlich got tossed based on who the umpire was. #WIAC
People coming out of the woodwork to get on #WIAC baseball while they fail to advance to Super Regionals this year. While deserved, the WIAC has not only put a team in Super Regionals every year since 2022, they had put TWO teams in EVERY year! Some leagues still haven't done it!
@d3photography@JohnGerads And I need to apologize... It looks like I misidentified the umpire. The umpire my comments were in regards to was not the home plate umpire but a different umpire that worked that Regional. My apologies!
@KevPit42o@BLCbaseball I said it earlier this season... The WIAC was as down as I can remember it. Outside of DePrez, there wasn't another starting pitcher in the WIAC on a roster outside of Whitewater that I felt could win in the Postseason, and yes, that includes the WIAC Pitcher of the Year.
@d3photography Absolutely... I'm not trying to excuse that side of it. My point was there's a history of ejections with this specific umpire, swearing or not.
There's a reason some organizations have decided to just not hire him in order to avoid the controversies that seem to follow him.
@d3photography That umpire has tossed guys for less... Hell, he ejected the leadoff hitter in the State Legion Championship last summer before the game even started.
