\"The<\/a>\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Yesterday Julie<\/a> and I headed to our first of two Mets<\/a> games in Milwaukee. Before catching the game we stopped in at the Miller Brewery<\/a> for the tour and some free beer. As a connoisseur of the High Life since that day in college when Nick Barbone<\/a> and I discovered a case of 30 High Life bottles only cost $11 , it was a must do while in Milwaukee. The tour was free and free beer was provided so I highly recommend it to anyone that has the chance.<\/p>\n

My Thoughts on Baseball:<\/p>\n

\"David<\/a>\"Julie\u2019s<\/a><\/p>\n

We got to the stadium early and watched batting practice otherwise know as women shouting David Wright’s<\/a> name in high pitched squeals. I must say if I had a job at this point I’d have a hard time doing it if every morning if 30 young women were yelling my name. But I digress. After batting practice, a particular third baseman for the New York Mets that my girlfriend is in love with threw a ball my way which I promptly handed over to the lady. Now I will say this wasn’t the only ball I caught from Mets players during batting practice but I like to spread the wealth. Now on to my thoughts on Baseball…<\/p>\n

First a Baseball game should only last 9 innings. No matter what. Odds are you’ve already crossed the 3 and a half hour point by then so it should be settled by now. I get the exact opposite feeling when a baseball game goes extra innings than I do when a football game goes to overtime. Second, a Baseball game should never consist of 10 pitchers. Why in the world does it take 10 pitchers to finish a game? It only takes 1 first baseman. I’ll give you two at the most, but 5 per side? Each team last night had a pitcher come in for one batter and then leave. This is insane. Why doesn’t anyone question this.<\/p>\n
