I have another new smartcard! This one is for the Milwaukee County Transit System. It cost me $2, and it saves me money per ride. It is easy to get to Miller Park, as there is a special "Brewers Line" bus service that goes through the centre of town and heads out West to the stadium. It doesn't take very long to get there, even with all the construction going on on Wisconsin Avenue.
My seat was in the back row (7) of section 335 from where I had a great view of the game. I was sitting next to Eric and Patty, season ticket holders, and we chatted through the game about our favourite stadiums.The club level here is easy to access and is well laid out. There are lots of food and drink locations, and plenty of chairs inside, with a huge number of large TVs for people to carry on watching the action whilst they move about.
It was lovely to be at a game where it wasn't hot. The temperature was around 17C/63F throughout the game, although Eric told me that Milwaukee had experienced a month of very high temperatures, which had only just ended.
Ryan Braun hit an early 2-run home run off Derek Holland to put Milwaukee in front, but San Francisco got them back one at a time, leaving the game poised at 2-2 into the late innings. Unfortunately, Hunter Strickland came in and gave up 2 more runs to the Brewers giving them a 4-2 lead which the Giants were never able to match.
