Milwaukee Brewers’ Christian Yelich destroys the Wrigley Field video board.
Christian Yelich decided to destroy something beautiful during batting practice Friday.
His Milwaukee Brewers were slated to begin their 60-game MLB season at the Friendly Confines of Wrigley Field vs. the NL Central rival Chicago Cubs. These are two teams vying for one of eight postseason spots in the National League this year. With a star player like Yelich, Milwaukee is capable of going on a deep postseason run, destroying every and all video boards along the way.
During batting practice the left-handed slugger for Milwaukee crushed an offering to the right field bleachers. Instead of landing on Sheffield Avenue, it took a chunk out of the video board in right field. It doesn’t look like it works any more. What are the fans not in attendance going to say about that? How do the cardboard cutouts of fans feel about their precious video board being ruined?
Christian Yelich asserts his dominance over the Wrigley Field video board.
You know when you do something stupid to your phone or laptop and a ton of the pixels don’t end up working properly? It’s exactly like that, only where else can you get a video board that isn’t at a major sporting venue in this great country of ours? Those things don’t grow on trees. Then again, neither does the unbelievable baseball talent a player like Yelich possesses. The dude is awesome.
For years, we were trying to tell you that this Pete Davidson doppelgänger was doing cool things for the Fish down in Miami. Sadly, nobody watched and he got hurt all the time. Now with the Brew Crew, Yelich is becoming the best thing to happen to Milwaukee baseball since Robin Yount or the very least Ryan Braun back when he doing a bunch of steroids and winning NL MVP.
Will Yelich have any more pop in his bat tonight? I mean, he just decided the Wrigley Field video board needed to go. Maybe they’ll replace the busted pixels overnight? Then again, it took decades for Wrigley Field to get lights, so pace has never been the old-timey ballpark’s forte. It’s a hell of a stadium to watch a baseball game in, besides climbing over dozens of people to get to your seat.
The Brewers may lose Friday, but Yelich wins big by obliterating the Cubs’ video board in right field.
