Weekend winners

› The Milwaukee Brewers. The Crew has won nine straight and is 24-4 in their last 28 games. Wowser.

› Jen Pawol. She became the first female MLB ump. Good for you, Ms. Pawol. Good for you.

› Ryan Fitzgerald. A real-life Crash Davis, who has more than 3,000 career ABs, played for the Twins over the weekend. He got his first MLB hit and his first MLB homer in the same game against the Royals.
