In 2007 I was drafted by the @Brewers. In 2016 I was traded. I played for them a large portion of my life.
I remember riding on the team bus in 2007, in the middle of nowhere Montana during rookie ball, watching the ‘82 World Series team highlight video. They engrained it in us from the beginning.
What the front office, players, and coaching staff have done this year is nothing short of amazing.
I remember sitting with Ueck, Gumby, and Gorman Thomas in the locker room one day and listening to them talk about the ‘82 series. Listening to them was a such a privilege. I miss those days.
The generations of players that have come and gone since then all dreamed about what has now come to fruition.
These guys have earned it, and like Murph said, we have gamers.
What an amazing time for the city of Milwaukee and State of Wisconsin!
I’m honored to have been drafted and played for the @Brewers. It truly is humbling to witness it.
The @Brewers are just 1 win away from clinching the NL Pennant!
Here is what it looked like when they clinched their only pennant, an AL crown in 1982 😳
In section 106 tonight, a 45-minute drive from home, was a man wearing his lucky Jake Bauers shirt. Stu Bauers has worn his son’s t-shirt the last four Brewers games. They are 4-0. It hasn’t been washed yet and at this rate it may never be.
