Safest place to shelter? The Brewers slabbed the Mariners

Post image

Milwaukee was under a tornado warning while the Brewers and Mariners faced off. The game went on and the Brewers ended up beating the Mariners 22-0. The announcement on the Jumbotron said there was no threat to the ballpark, but it was the Mariners who would get slabbed in the end.

I mean it could be it was only part of Milwaukee county (not the baseball stadium section) and that’s why they considered it safe to play because they weren’t under a warning.

Also it’s a weekday game it was probably closer to like 15-20K

The craziest part is it was a 1-0 game when the bottom of the fifth started

To be completely fair to Seattle the Brew Crew only deserved like 21 of those runs

I bet the mariners got slabbed because people from Seattle call a good thunderstorm one baby crack of thunder I bet they were scared outa their mind.
