After a little gamesmanship by the Brewers manager Pat Murphy.
Right hander Quinn Priester will start tonight's third game
of the National League Division series.
Milwaukee leads the best of five playoff two games to none.
Priester was warming up before Monday's contest,
which was started by left hander Aaron Ashby.
Then he spent the rest of the game sitting in the bullpen.

First pitch time eight minutes after three.
Manager Pat Murphy of the Brewers knows having work with Craig Council all those years
that Council's team will be ready.
As a manager and the big things I stood next to him for that many years and saw
the way he washed off losses and I saw the way he got teams ready to play.
So I have great respect for him and know what kind of competitor he is.
Murphy says it will be tough playing in Chicago.
I've been lucky enough to be here a number of times in the last ten years
and I know how great this crowd can be and how impactful it can be.
Just like ours were the last two games.
So we've got a battle on our hands and we know that.
In the crowd will inevitably play a role, you know, impacting the game.
And pitcher Quinn Priester talked about the matchup today.
They know they're going to get, we know what we're going to get.
And it's just, you know, go to battle.
And just we're going to keep punching back.
They're going to keep punching.
See who comes out on top.
And I guess I think if we play our our style baseball and
we execute the way we can execute on the mound at the plate to really confident our team.

The Yankees needed someone to save them Tuesday night air and judge stepped up.

The managers prepare for Iowa this weekend.
Coach Luke Fickle says it will be a great atmosphere.
Moving forward, the focus is understanding and recognizing, obviously, what happened last year
and what it is that we need to do to change all that that happened last year.
It'll be a physical tough, hard-nosed game, nothing different than what you would expect
from an Iowa Wisconsin football game.
And I think it'll be exactly that.
And now we got to get ourselves prepared for that.
And we got to make sure that Saturday night we're ready to roll.
The Bucks reportedly didn't discuss the idea of trading superstar
Yanis Anthony Cumpo to the Knicks.
ESPN reports that Yanis hadn't requested a trade when the sides talked in August.
His team has said multiple times that it has no plans to trade him or letting leave.
The Knicks offer wasn't nearly enough.
Any trade for Yanis would send so much talent and draft capital to Milwaukee
that the other side would be decimated.
That's an update on sports for a Wednesday.
