Early Tuesday morning musings
Woo! Brewers win in 12 over the Cubbies.
The Brewers are playing some great ball of late and are doing some serious damage against the division. In the midst of a 23 game stretch against teams in their division, they are 7 -3 and have opened up a 2.5 game lead over the division.
The best part of the game today was the fact that the bullpen threw 8 innings of shutout relief and allowed the Brewers to chip away and finally get the win on Prince Fielder’s second home run of the game in the 12th.
It’s just great to see the team playing so well in the 25th anniversary season of the only time the Brewers went to the World Series.
As I’ve said in the comments, I’m going to be picking up the PS3 version of Pro Yakyuu Spirits 4 one way or another tomorrow. I managed to track down a translation guide written by a gentleman over at Japanesebaseball.com and having something like that will be a huge help for me as I don’t understand anything about the Japanese language.
I’m looking at picking the game up from either Play-asia.com, NCSX.com, Yesasia.com, or from a local store in Madison that carries import games from time to time. NCSX and Yesasia are talking about up to a two week wait before they’ll ship the game. Play-asia promises to ship within 24 hours, but charges $20 to get the game to you within 4 days. Decisions, decisions.
Why I’m looking at spending $80 on a game right now is beyond me though as I barely have 30 minutes of gaming time each day. I’m just a game junky, I suppose.
