We recount how Mommy and MeMe joined Anthony and Daddy on Brewers baseball road trip No. 8 to Pittsburgh, the boys drove to Minnesota for trip No. 9, and two good friends joined the father-and-son on their Brewers road trip to the birthplace of America for trip No. 10 in Philadelphia. And everywhere, the home fans were fantastic to us! From Primanti’s to cheese steaks, from Three Rivers to the Mississippi, from the Mary Tyler Moore Statue to the Liberty Bell, it was three insane trips! All while taking you around Milwaukee to homegrown ice cream shop Purple Door, the Bronze Fonz, Saint Kate’s Hotel and a Brewers-Reds game.
You’re now ALL CAUGHT UP on the boys’ baseball road trips before their 2019 journeys which, as this video is released, have already begun!

"What in the world is this?"…lol The ad libs are so much fun! Love the extra clips of walking on the field, getting autographs, etc. as well as the mid-game cheering. Go Brew Crew! Yay Sorgi Stories!
Anthony you are adorable! Thanks for sharing those moments in our hotel.

Next Minneapolis-St. Paul experience? Bowling at Ran-Ham as you get a Juicy Lucy from The Nook… which is right across the street from the Cretin-Derham Hall baseball field. Notable baseball guys from that school include Joe Mauer and Paul Molitor (along with umpires Tim Tschida and Mark Wegner).
