Brew Crew

No this is not a post about visiting breweries.  It is a post about visiting Miller Park home of the Milwaukee Brewers baseball team.  We drove from De Pere to Milwaukee on September 17th to see the Brewers host the Chicago Cubs.  Now by this point in the season both teams were eliminated from any play off chances.  In fact they were playing for last place in the division.  But that does not matter because there is a nice rivalry between the two teams.  Miller park has a retractable roof but on the night we were there, the roof was closed.  We both liked the stadium as they had done a nice job of including the history of the Brewers and also the Milwaukee Braves.  It was cool.  We saw an excellent baseball game and the home team won in the bottom of the 9th with a bases loaded 1 out squeeze play.  First game ending squeeze I have seen.

  1. Sounds like it was an awesome game! I was in Milwaukee years ago for a meeting but the Brew Crew was out of town at the time . . . would have loved to see a game in that stadium . . . much improved over the old County Stadium they played in when they went to the WS against my Cardinals in 82. Jealous of your stadium visits! Enjoy, as I can tell you both are :)
