Great, its Niese's ML debut. AWESOME.

Please win.

And for the love of God, will someone feed Prince a cheeseburger already...

It's a special day when a guy makes his major league debut...I almost feel bad for hoping he gets lit up.

"If you are in a fantasy league and looking for a player whose career might take off in 2008, I would recommend that you look carefully at Rickie Weeks. If you're not in a fantasy league and could care less about that, I recommend that you look at Rickie Weeks anyway, because he's really weird and interesting."

ML debut? Dang, looks like a loss tonight.

I'm going out on a limb and saying the Crew will actually light up Niese, despite the whole major league debut thing. He is a lefty after all.

The Mets have read the scouting report - feed the Brewers fresh meat and they will choke. Or maybe it just seems that way...

if we can win on the road, we can pound some kid making his debut, right??

Tonight is my first time sitting in a luxury box at Miller Park. Can anyone tell me what i should expect for food/drink options?

I'm fine losing to Santana because he was pretty nasty yesterday with the changeup, but this is a game we should win. Hopefully our dominance against lefties shows up tonight!

If history holds, the Crew should win 5-3 tonight, and 9-7 tomorrow.

It is up to whoever is putting in the food and drink order. There are a lot of yummy options, but my favorite is the chilled tenderloin dish. Hopefully they are also popping for the desert cart.

i'm in box 33 tonight. I passed on going my other opportunity for the box this year because I had 4th row seats behind the dugout:) Hopefully we will both have fun and see a win

I've been thinking about this game all day. I fear that the Mets are going to destroy Manny. I just have a feeling

Apparently you should not expect to drink any Miller High Life.

Have fun in Section La-Dee-Da, datrain. The only way I'm ever getting into one of those suites is if I stowaway on a food cart or something.

Should be a good game tonight. Isn't Niese a pretty highly-regarded prospect? Hopefully the Brewers can take advantage of the first-start jitters, or at least make him throw a lot of pitches early so they can get into that Mets bullpen.

"The way everyone is literally expecting a beaning, it sounds like Braun pointed directly into the Astros' dugout, yelled, 'That one's for your Mom, Pence!' and then proceeded to throw his head back and laugh and pat his belly as he rounded the bases." -- SeriesFinale, 9/5/07

"I pounded the zone, but I pounded the middle of it." -- Manny Parra after a rough start in LA

Ah, Brewers, I'm just finishing up a very long and hectic workday. Please give me something happy to hang my hat on by day's end.

(They're probably done looking at the internets for the evening, but it can't hurt to ask, right?)

Why should you keep rooting? All 45 of us can't keep the 40,000 seats warm for ya'all when you jump back on the wagon when we eventually start winning.

We can be heroes, if just for one half. - Bring Back the Stein, on CC Sabathia

The 4th deck is sold out because it is a amaco come on back night, but there are plenty of tickets down the first and third baseline in the first deck
