Baseball and Byways
September 2, 2008 -

I was listening to the Milwaukee Brewers pre-game show on the radio yesterday while driving home from a fun-filled day at my in-laws’ cabin. The announcer welcomed everyone to the sold-out game and he said everyone traveled on “highways and byways” to get to Miller Park. I wondered how many Major League Baseball stadiums are on or near one of America’s Byways®. What a great connection: baseball and byways. It doesn’t get any more American than that.
