Can anyone find vid/gif of the Kelvin Gutierrez throw to the stands from last night.  It was probably the worst throw I have witnessed live at a game.  

If you have access to mlb.tv, the archive of the Astros TV broadcast has it at about 36:10 into the stream.

Going to Miller Park in early August.  Recommendations on places to eat/visit during the day in Milwaukee??

First f selig.

 

That said, was there in mid-August last year.

Not a bad town. I remember everything being within 15 minutes to get to. The park is on the outskirts of town....out by a casino (pro tip: Milwaukee casino clientele offers a special level of depression/people watching)

 

Nothing really stands out for places we ate.

We did the Public Market and walked around their historic district

There was a lot being built up around the new basketball arena (Fiserv Forum) that may be finished by the time you go. The Pabst brewery is in that area.

We checked out one of the Lake Michigan beaches (Bradford, I think). Again, Milwaukee beach clientele offers a special level of people watching....we went in mid-August and I swear it was the first time half the people there had gotten some vitamin D all year.

The art museum was surprisingly good

Harley Davidson headquarters is also in Milwaukee. We dropped in but didn’t do the tour

And Swihart’s UT roommate just hit one in the river. 

I’m not going to do the research, but that Josh Bell hr earlier today might have been the furthest hr of the season. Ridiculous power.

 

edit: 472 feet, 114.9 mph exit velocity lol

His 96.7 average exit velocity on all kinds of batted balls entering Wednesday is highest among hitters with at least 50 batted balls this season -- by more than a mile and a half per hour. Carlos Santana and Nelson Cruz are tied for second at 94.9 mph.
