Brewers’ had a huge party plane arranged after Trevor Hoffman replaced Jonathan Broxton. Broxton arrived with Braun and Prince Fielder who was added as only a reverse. Fielder wasn’t even sure he would play.

Fielder told press yesterday:

“This is Albert’s town, so if he needs to play the whole game, I would have no problem with that. I’m just here to enjoy it. If I get in, I get in. If not, it’s no big deal.”

Fielder delivered 23 home runs in 3 rounds, averaging 439 feet.
