Championship or nothing.
MILWAUKEE (AP) -- With his mother sitting in the stands and a pink bat in his hands, Bill Hall figured he was going to do something special to help the Milwaukee Brewers win on Sunday.
Hall figured his sacrifice bunt to set up the go-ahead run in the eighth inning might have been that moment. And if not, his long throw from deep in the hole at shortstop to preserve a one-run lead in the ninth certainly could have been.
But first baseman Prince Fielder dropped the throw, Xavier Nady was called safe and Carlos Delgado scored from third to tie the game. The Brewers would have to call on Hall again.
He delivered a two-out home run in the 10th inning to give Milwaukee a 6-5 victory over the New York Mets.
