The haunting of …. theAtlanta Braves.
The Braves, who currently hold a 16-20 record, traveled to Milwaukee this week to take on the 23-13Brewers, but the Wisconsin team’s record isn’t the only thing they’ll have to be wary of during their visit.
Although downtown Milwaukee’sPfister Hotelis a staple among MLB teams while they’re in town to play the Brewers, a handful of the league’s stars have claimed to experience bizarre happenings while staying at the hotel over the years. And the Braves were not immune to some … inconveniences.
The Associated Press reported that the hotel experienced an extended power outage while the team was staying there.
Team manager Brian Snitkertold reportersthat the Braves had issues with running water and light switches at the Pfister. “I went into the bathroom and turned the light on, and it didn’t happen,” Snitker said.
