There is one sad young man in the Eau Claire area today.
Marcus Hanel, who has been the Brewers bullpen catcher since 1999, no longer wears No. 54. He had to give it up when the club acquired reliever David Riske. Hanel now wears No. 55.
Why does this matter to you?
It probably doesn't. But when I was out enjoying a local establishment with some friends on Monday night, there was someone wearing a customized Marcus Hanel jersey that was autographed. I've seen some crazy jerseys in my day, but that was the first bullpen catcher jersey I've seen on anyone other than, well, a bullpen catcher.
So to Marcus Hanel's biggest fan in Eau Claire, looks like you need some new threads.
