Baseball a family affair for Lucroys

With catcher Jonathan Lucroy already entrenched behind the plate in Milwaukee, the Brewers made it a family affair when they selected younger brother David, a right-hander out of East Carolina University, in the 20th round of the 2015 Draft. David will begin his professional career in Helena, Mont., where he once visited his big brother at the same stage in his career.

"My dad is jacked up," David Lucroy said.

It's a dream come true for Steve Lucroy, whose other son, Michael, is a firefighter/EMT in Florida. Having his oldest and youngest son together in the Brewers organization means that, for the first time in years, the family will be able to enjoy Spring Training together.
