  • The Brewers have us over the moon!

    All of Wisconsin is sitting in the front row! Wisconsin needed that. The Milwaukee Brewers won their first World Series after coming so close too long ago — 1982. The city and state’s first baseball championship since the 1957 Braves (for you history buffs). Church bells rang in Milwaukee Wednesday night 10-28-26. Shouts of jubilation…

  • Hope struck out

    Are we doomed to disappointment? Couldn’t bear to watch more than the top of the first inning. Brewers second baseman Brice Turang worked a walk against the improbable Shohei Ohtani.

    not of pottage but odds & ends. Showers again today in southern Wisconsin. Hope they continue in Milwaukee’s ballpark. Andrew Vaughn knows how to take a Gatorade shower, cups and all. Well deserved after clubbing that grand slam home run to put the Brewers up 9 to 3 over the Chicago Cubs Tuesday. Vaughn is…

  • We’ll drink to the Brewers!

    The little engine that could! We are so juiced by the Milwaukee Brewers! Eleven straight wins to jump ahead of the Chicago Cubs. Best record in the majors at 60 and 40! When everyone gave them up for dead after trading away Corbin Burnes, Willy Adames, and Devin Williams (Who? Who? and Who?) in the…
