Man charged with felony burglary of Brewers clubhouse after reportedly drinking at least 10 beers

A 25-year-old man was charged with felony burglary of the Milwaukee Brewers clubhouse following a September doubleheader, according to an Associated Press and ESPN report.

The man was charged on Dec. 14, per the report. The details of the incident — according to a criminal complaint — say he "passed out in the bushes" outside the stadium and "upon awakening, entered the team's clubhouse and stole electronics, a credit card, team memorabilia and other items."

The complaint notes that the man attended a Sept. 8 doubleheader against the San Francisco Giants, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The "Brew Crew" defeated the visiting Giants in both games that day, 2-1 and 4-2.

According to the report, the man said he had "at least 10 beers, passed out, woke up and got back inside the stadium by pulling on a door until it opened." 

Among the items stolen from a team strength coach's office, according to the coach, were "a laptop, iPods, headphones, a passport and a credit card."

The Associated Press and ESPN report said that among the other things taken were a "jersey and shaving kit" from manager Craig Counsell's office, a "game-used hat, an autographed bat, a 45-year anniversary 1982 signed bat, a replica World Series ring, and keys to the team's Arizona spring training facility" from an equipment manager's office and "two game jerseys and a bag with baseballs and pitching devices were taken from the coaches' locker room," per the complaint.

According to the report, the 25-year-old ordered an Uber to bring him home, and his roommate told detectives that he arrived early on Sept. 9 with a "duffel bag stuffed with Brewers memorabilia."

Investigators recovered most of the items from the apartment, per the report.
