It sounded wild, man. Game 4 of the World Series, and when the Milwaukee Brewers did anything good, Tropicana Field was rocking like it was American Family Field back in Milwaukee.
Brewers Nation Hits the Road Hard
This wasn’t some fluke cheer. Nope. With the Brewers on the brink of their first-ever World Series championship, their fans poured into Central Florida. Turns out, there was a pretty light ticket market for tickets, and Brewers faithful took full advantage. They were there to see history.
Roars Heard ‘Round the Diamond
You saw it immediately. Top of the fourth, the Tampa Bay Rays were up 1-0. Cooper Pratt steps up with two outs and Sal Frelick on first. Pratt rips a first-pitch rocket down the left-field line, right to the warning track. Frelick hustles home all the way from first to tie it up 1-1, and Tropicana Field absolutely ERUPTED. It was like a Milwaukee home game, no kidding.
Then, in the fifth, Milwaukee’s David Hamilton drills a solo shot to tie the game again at 2-2, and those roars just kept coming in St. Petersburg. Fans in the stands were posting videos, totally stunned. One former World Series champion even said he’d never seen anything like it. And for the fans who couldn’t make the trip to Florida? Plenty packed American Family Field back home for a massive watch party. The Brewers can taste it, man.
The Rays? They’re stuck trying to buck baseball history, down 0-3 in the series. They’re playing virtual road games in their own stadium, and that’s a tough pill to swallow when you’re trying to stave off elimination. What a scene.
