The Milwaukee Brewers are set for Game Three of the NLCS, up 2-0 on the Dodgers, and the team is in good spirits. Before the game, first baseman Andrew Vaughn shared some laughs about rookie shortstop Cooper Pratt. When asked how much Pratt has grown, Vaughn joked, ‘It took a while for him to put his sippy cup down.’ This is a nod to Pratt drinking Fanta during a celebration, since as a Mormon, he doesn’t consume alcohol. Pratt’s viral moment has become a team joke, but Vaughn also praised his teammate’s dedication. Pratt has been a surprise star, hitting .281 in 74 games with 34 RBI and 19 steals. In the postseason, he’s kept it up, batting .286. The rookie’s consistency has been key for the Brewers as they aim to advance.
