Brewers-Diamondbacks game suspended

Tonight’s Brewers-Diamondbacks game has been suspended indefinitely, as the following Brewers were arrested outside Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport this morning: Yovani Gallardo, Claudio Vargas, Carlos Villanueva, Alcides Escobar, and Carlos Gómez.

“The team bus was clocked at 1.5 miles over the speed limit,” said Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio. “We took the opportunity given to us by our state’s new immigration law to check the citizenship papers of those onboard. The individuals detained were without them.”

No makeup game has yet been scheduled, especially as the arrested players’ whereabouts are currently unknown.

  1. This will save us despairing Brewers fans the likelihood of another loss. Bring back the Pirates!

  2. Wait a second– there is a baseball team called “The Brewers”? As in brewing of beer– an alcoholic beverage???

    We need to protect our children from that.

  3. Funny. Poignant. Well done.

  4. Hilarious!

  5. Yeah. The same state has a football team called the Packers.

    As in fudge.
