Wisconsin businesses respond to former Brewers’ comments about Milwaukee [Video]

Two Wisconsin businesses offered deals in response to Jesse Winker’s comments about Milwaukee.Winker played just 61 games for the Milwaukee Brewers last season. During that time, he recorded a .199 batting average, one home run and 23 RBI. He also appeared in two at-bats for the Brewers during the 2023 Wild Card series against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Winker was booed after going 0-2 in those postseason at-bats and struck out in one of them.Winker recently returned to Milwaukee during this year’s Wild Card series against the Brewers as a member of the New York Mets. He was met with even more boos after recording a two-run triple in Game 1 while also jawing with Brewers shortstop Willy Adames. He was also hit by a pitch twice in the series. In Game 3, he spiked his helmet after scoring an insurance run for the Mets to help them eliminate the Brewers from the postseason.Recently, Winker reflected on the series and told the New York Post, Its part of sports, these fans, they can react to you however they want. They pay the tickets. Theyre the veins and the lifeblood of our sport but Ill hate the city of Milwaukee forever.In response, the Lakeshore Chinooks, a collegiate summer baseball team, offered a promotion for general admission vouchers for just $1.99 to any Monday-Wednesday home game. The price was a reference to Winker’s batting average with the Brewers. The deal has since expired. It was only available for 199 minutes.Broken Bat Brewery also posted on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, that all pints would be $1.99 on Oct. 10 if their post received 100 likes. At last check, the post has received more than 4,000 likes on X. Broken Bat Brewery kept their promise to customers. The original post has since been removed because of the Brewers asking them to take it down because it displayed one of their logos without proper licensing.The Mets are now heading to the NLCS after defeating the Philadelphia Phillies in the NLDS. In the divisional series, Winker recorded a solo home run and two walks in two games.Every team that has beaten the Brewers in the postseason has appeared in the World Series. After beating the Brewers in 2023, the Diamondbacks lost to the Texas Rangers in the World Series.
