The Brewers-Cubs rivalry has taken on a whole new dynamic this season, with Craig Counsell now managing the Chicago Cubs. Over the weekend, the Cubs took 2 of 3 games from the Brew Crew.

"At first, I was actually pretty mad about it," says Brewers fan Jackson Strelow. "But now we've got Pat Murphy. He's been ejected two games in a row for standing up for his players. I think we're happier with Pat, he's leading the team in a more energetic way than Craig ever did."

"I was a little heartbroken at first," explains Brewers fan Riley Nietzer. "It was so out of the blue, but business is business. Sometimes you've got to move on. I think the new manager is doing an awesome job."

Gloria Browne, a 90-year-old Cubs fan, has been coming here since she was six.

"I don't know, I think it's good," Gloria says. "But I liked Rossy. That wasn't nice how they fired him."

"I was kind of surprised," Cubs fan Tom Zito explains. "But I'm glad we got him, and hopefully, he'll do what he did with the Milwaukee Brewers."
