On December 19, 2010 the Milwaukee Brewers gave every fan an early Christmas present as they acquired Zack Greinke from the Kansas City Royals. While the price was steep, I remember waking up ecstatic knowing full well that the Brewers were “going for it.” As a season ticket holder who has had and still has season tickets with his dad, I knew that the 2011 season wasn’t going to be like of the season’s we saw from 1992 on. This team was going places and it was going to be special.
And special it was.
