'Tony Plush' recalls moment of glory for Crew

MILWAUKEE -- "Still chasing the dream," Nyjer Morgan said via text from Venezuela on Friday, five years to the day after he made Miller Park shake with joy.

Can you believe it's been five years? It was Oct. 7, 2011, at Miller Park, with the Brewers and D-backs tied at 2 in the bottom of the 10th inning of Game 5 of the National League Division Series. J.J. Putz was on the mound for Arizona and Carlos Gomez was at second base for Milwaukee when Morgan "tickled" -- his word -- a ground ball single over second base, sending Gomez sprinting home for the Brewers' first postseason series win in 29 years.
