After a 3-game series against the Atlanta Braves to open the season at Miller Park, the Brewers are embarking on their first road trip of the season, with stops in Boston and Philadelphia where they will be part of two more Opening Days.
The team will begin with Interleague play in Boston against the Red Sox with three games this weekend, including tomorrow afternoon, which is Boston’s home opener. Then, the team will head to Philadelphia. Monday is the Phillies home opener, followed by an off day on Tuesday and two more games against the Phillies next Wednesday and Thursday before heading back home to Miller Park to take on the Pirates beginning Friday, April 11.
From what we’ve seen over the past few seasons, Brewers fans love to travel. Every city we go to, there are Brewers fans making their presence felt, and, in talking to players and coaches, they notice and appreciate the support while away from Miller Park.
Nothing is better than seeing true Brewers fans hanging out before games during batting practice, cheering on the team after a Brewers road win and walking the streets in whatever city the Crew is in.
From seeing some of your tweets and hearing people talk, it sounds like the Brewers will be well supported in Boston and Philly with many fans planning on making the trip.
John will be on the road trip with the team and he will be looking for Brewers fans in both cities. If you plan on going to the games (or any games throughout the season for that matter), tweet and/or Instagram your photos using #BrewersRoadCrew as the hashtag.
We’ll collect them throughout the trip and post them here on the blog, as well as post them on our social sites.
In addition, you can upload them to our Brewers Fans on the Fly digital fan map and your photo just might be selected to be shown on the scoreboard during a game!
Are any fans planning meeting up anywhere before any of the games? Let us know; we’ll also post any Brewers fans pregame events that fans might be planning.
Hopefully we’ll see some of you on the road–if not this trip, sometime this season!
Cheer loud and proud, Brewers fans!
