04/20/87 Brewer Classic: Vs ChiSox, 13-0 start

[Jimbo]

A note to the younger fans: this game may not get the nostalga that the no-hitter or Easter Sunday game gets, but this was a biggie.

 

I was attending the UW and remember a couple of classmates in an engineering class heading down to Chicago from Madison after class on a Monday evening to catch this. You don't hear Wisconsinites doing this anymore.

 

This game had World Series intensity.

Surely not in April. I think I watched this game at Union South.

 

(Whippersnapper alert: Not every dorm room had a TV Back Then, and since I lived in what was then an all-female dorm, there wasn't as much interest in watching sports on the lounge TV. Not when you could watch VH-1 or girly fare.)
