Milwaukee Brewers

A fundraising bus trip to see the St. Louis Cardinals play the Milwaukee Brewers will be taking place on Sunday, July 3.  The bus trip is being organized by Father Ed Arambasich with all proceeds to support the Franciscans.

Former Quincy Gem’s ambidextrous pitcher Pat Venditte has been called up to the Oakland A’s from Triple-A Nashville. Venditte, who played for the Quincy Gems in the Central Illinois Collegiate League in 2006, will be in uniform when the A’s meet the Boston Red Sox tonight.

Last Saturday the St. Louis Cardinals wore a different home uniform when they played the Milwaukee Brewers at Busch Stadium. It was the first time in 80 years that the team wore an alternate uniform.
