Brewers triumphant over Rockies in extra innings on Re-Opening Day, 5-4

The United States, and the rest of the world, continue the transition back towards normalcy as the widespread availability and distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine helps to bring an end to the pandemic. Things took a big step in Milwaukee with the capacity of American Family Field returning to 100%, which the Brewers celebrated as “Re-Opening Day” against the Colorado Rockies on Friday afternoon.

Things started off as a good, old-fashioned pitcher’s duel, with Corbin Burnes and Jon Gray matches zeroes for the first several innings. Gray punched out 10 batters in 5.0 innings, and Burnes didn’t allow a hit until the sixth innings, although it was Corbin that blinked first.
