Box Score Trivia: Brewers Historical Edition

For those of you who aren’t familiar with the sheer joy of the boxscore game that brings out the inner baseball nerd in us all, here’s a  short rundown of how it works: a box score from a memorable game is posted and, by judging the score and the players’ performances, you guess which game it was.

Fun, right? I’ll post these regularly throughout the season because it’s easy to do and I hope you readers enjoy it as much as I do.

Thanks to Baseball Almanac for providing the box score for this one. Check here to see if your guess is correct.
