I know we're all getting tired of watching these bums dance around home plate on us...and I already felt like they did it a disproportionate amount of the time. Turns out that's true.
Since the Brewers moved to the NL we've lost 53 times on their home field (overall our record is okay there actually, 56-53)
12 of them have been walkoff losses, plus another 7 where they went ahead in the bottom of the 8th.
As far as the walkoffs, that's 23% of the time we lose to them.
In MLB as a whole, only about 8-9% of games end that way.
So yes, it is a curse.
Or in the case of today's game, the curse of Dusty Baker. I like the guy overall but sometimes he makes some puzzling decisions. Today was mindblowing...why we even used a physically-worn and confidence-worn Cordero again with SO MANY OPTIONS AVAILABLE is beyond me. But it is what it is. What literally could and should have been a 4 game sweep is a 3-1 series loss.
