Twofer taco Tuesday is in the past, and now the Cubs are up for a quick series in the Milwaukee that Miller made famous. No, not Stu Miller, who famously almost got blown off the pitcher’s mound in the 1961 All-Star Game in Candlestick Park, and not famous labor negotiator Marvin Miller, but Frederick Miller, who hailed from Hohenzollern, Germany and started a little brewing company in southern Wisconsin.
Two days with no Cubs is rough, I know. I too am suffering Cubbie withdrawal, ameliorated only by a watching of Willard on International Rat Day, which was yesterday as you’re reading but is very much today as I’m writing, for such is the peculiar magic of the Cub Tracks continuum.
