Brewers
fans at Benders Restaurant and Sports Pub who watched their team
lose to the Phillies Sunday consoled themselves with a moral
victory.
"They did better than the Cubs. That makes it a successful
season," said Kevin Buettner of West Bend.
Buettner, who works at Benders, watched the Brewers’ last game
with other die-hards at the bar. They wore their rally caps and
beads and stayed optimistic until the very end, Buettner said. The
game started to go south when Pat Burrell hit a home run in the 3rd
inning with Shane Victorino and Ryan Howard on bases, driving the
score to 4-0 in the Phillies’ favor.
