Braun, Braun, Braun, Boom!

Ryan Braun hits a grand slam in the bottom of the tenth and the Brewers walk off with a 5-1 win over the Pirates. That keeps them tied with the Mets and gives us a decent chance at a three-way tie come Monday morning. The Brewers celebrated like they just won the pennant.

Yovani Gallardo pitched four good innings in his return, walking two and striking out seven. He'd be an excellent long man out of the pen in the playoffs, should the Brewers earn a wild card berth.

Update: Just did a quick calculation, and based on each team having a 50% chance of winning each game (a simplifying assumption), the chance of a three-way tie is about 7.5%.
