me yesterday at the end of the interview: is there anything else you want to share, or anything you think is important for people to understand for the story?

the family i’m interviewing: not really, but do you want to meet and hold our birds?

I’ll never forget that inning because after it happened I won $500 at pull tabs

"When the grounder to Turang resulted in that last out, that was it. I saw my dad letting 57 years of disappointment out. There were so many tears... the only words I remember saying over and over as all of the players were running onto the field was, “Thank you, Dad." 😭

Beers with a priest. Teachers who had to ask Tarik Skubal’s dad for time off to watch. Hugs. Tears. FaceTimes. Even a first kiss.

How Brewers fans took in one of the most meaningful moments of their lives Wednesday night:

The World Series winning skipper was reading the local paper on his way to SNL. You should, too.

Who do you wish was still with us to see the Brewers in the World Series?

@AGretzlock @journalsentinel Wow, that's amazing. Where are you stationed, and where is he buried? Can I include your first and last name, and this anecdote, in an updated story? If so - could you spell it?

@SamKuffelWx Thank you, Sam!

This entire thread. 😭🥹

It’s so much more than just baseball. It’s the people, memories, dreams, and years that have passed while we were busy watching.
