The  bullpen can get boring.  Think about it.  Sitting out there 400+ feet away from the action 162 times a year makes these guys a little bit crazy.

More from Milwaukee Brewers

Have you ever wondered what they do out there?  When most of us take in a game, we are more interested in what is happening on the field instead of in the bullpen.

Milwaukee’s bullpen gave us a little insight when they hammed it up for the TV cameras last night.  Matt Garza was pitching a gem, so they were bored.

In the sixth inning, outfield Khris Davis hit a home run into the Milwaukee bullpen that reliever Tom Gorzelanny caught in his hat.

The bullpen celebrated in a few unique ways.  Marco Estrada ran wind sprints.  Will Smith engaged in a mock fight.

Of course, you can get away with such shenanigans when you are up 7-0.  These guys pretty much had the night off.

Except for Gorzelanny, of course.  The one that caught the home run was called in to pitch the ninth inning in relief of Garza, who went eight innings of one run ball.

The only blemish was a solo home run by Lucas Duda in the seventh inning.  The Brewers went on to win 9-1
