Cardinals-Brewers recap, the Cardinals are just out of gas. The pitching showed up last night but the offense was non-existent... and then there's Garcia's trip and fall.

Brian Anderson, broadcaster for Turner Sports, Brewers-Fox Sports Wisconsin, Big Ten Network, and Golf Channel joins Bernie and Michelle to talk about the Brewers run to the postseason, if Christian Yelich is the clear-cut NL MVP, if Tiger Woods is all the way back, and how this crazy week is far from over.

The Backpage - a return to the top stories of the day

NFL Insider John Clayton joins Bernie and Michelle to talk about if the turmoil over the Steelers defense still there despite the win over the undefeated Tampa Bay Buccaneers, is the Patriots dynasty starting to crumble, was the Bills upset of the Vikings a one-off, who he likes to win Rams-Vikings, and how did the Jaguars lose to the Titans 9-6?

The Crossover with Kevin Wheeler

Was John Mozeliak aggressive enough in reinforcing his team for the final two months? Relative to the Cubs and Brewers, no.

Max Scherzer hits 300 strikeouts - just the 6th pitcher since 1990 to do it. Bernie, given your relationship and familiarity with Scherzer and his entire career, I believe you would be able to speak well on this. Not just an incredible feat, but more so just another marker on his highway to Cooperstown. Plus, Bryce Harper says he wants to be in D.C. - I don’t doubt he would like to stay in DC. Probably loves the city. But he knows better than anyone that they’re not going to buck up. And they’re not going to win. And he wants a ring. And a fat check. And he’ll get it elsewhere. Maybe St. Louis? Maybe.

More on The Umpire Show. Really concerning how an ump can swallow his pride enough to take a few words from an MVP candidate in the most important week of the season. No one is paying service fees on StubHub to see you, blue. Plus, a note to Busch Stadium - where is everyone? Announced attendance Monday night was 36,508. And that was tickets sold. Felt like nearly half that were actually in attendance. Last night there were definitely more, but if you’re going to be coined the BFIB, how can these games - the most crucial of what was once a lost season - not be all sold out? 

Ask Bernie

Cardinals are giving the feeling that they’ve run out of gas. Especially on the bump. The offense is showing life and has a pulse, but the rotation and pen is sputtering. Digging too deep holes for the offense. And with Gant on the mound tomorrow and suddenly a deficit in the Wild Card standings, does anyone feel like it’s time to break the glass and hammer that Panic Button.

More talk on the Cardinals and a look into the numbers about their play of late.

MLB Network's Robert Flores joins Bernie and Michelle to talk about whether it's time to panic in St. Louis or not, if it's time to drop the word "candidate" in MVP candidate Christian Yelich, where he thinks Bryce Harper will land next season, and more.
