Saturday Scorecard: It was nice knowin' ya, CC
Diehard Brewers fans can uncross their fingers and step away from the rabbit's feet and four-leaf clovers. Chances of the Brewers retaining CC Sabathia evaporated when the Yankees reportedly offered the ace lefty a six-year, $140 million contract. Milwaukee fans will be left with the wonderful memories of Sabathia's 18 games, 134 1/3 innings, 537 batters faced and 1,979 pitches.

Saturday Scorecard: A very important free agent
While Brewers fans continue to fantasize about the club signing CC Sabathia, another important free agent is hanging out at home in Hartland, waiting for the phone to ring. Pitching coach Mike Maddux's contract with the team is set to expire and -- depending what happens with the manager -- it's uncertain whether he will return to the club next season.

The top five Wisconsin sports stories in October
The top sports story of September is a no-brainer. The Brewers' roller coaster ride to the post-season as the National League Wild Card is an easy choice. After blowing a 5 ½-game lead, the Brewers went down to the last game on Sunday, won by a great pitching performance by CC Sabathia and a clutch home run by Ryan Braun.

A Brewers fan with a Philly address
Upon moving to the Philadelphia area over Labor Day weekend I was indifferent towards the Phillies and their fans. Like the rest of Brewers Nation I have been focused on our team's run at the postseason. Plus, hatred of the Cubs and their fans has nothing to do with one's proximity to Chicago, where I most recently lived. I detest them now as much as ever.

Brewers charge into the playoffs; will face Phillies
Led by leftfielder Ryan Braun (pictured) and indomitable pitcher CC Sabathia, the Brewers defeated the Cubs, 3-1, before a sellout crowd of 45,299 Sunday at Miller Park. A few minutes later, the Mets lost to the Marlins in New York, giving the Brewers the National League wild card berth and their first trip to the playoffs since 1982.
