Sports ? Brews ? JSOnline

Let's face it, the triple is baseball's oddest hit. It takes a crazy carom or the ball finding its way to the deepest point of the ballpark for most players to be able to get to third.

The Cubs and the Brewers roll in to Wrigley North this weekend to continue their one-sided rivalry for a 3-game set. Honestly, if you were to compute the ratio of how much Brewers fans care about the Cubs to the amount that Cubs fans care about the Brewers, it would be about 100...
