Brewers manager Pat Murphy understands the importance of fan support, especially when playing in the historic confines of Wrigley Field.
“I’ve been lucky enough to be here a number of times in the last 10 years. I know how great this crowd can be and how impactful it can be, just like ours were the last two games,” Murphy said. “We’ve got a battle on our hands, and we know that. The crowd will inevitably play a role in impacting the game.”
While tickets for the Brewers Express are sold out, Amtrak is offering three additional departures that will get fans to Chicago well ahead of game time.
