The stars of Tuesday night's Milwaukee Brewers game got the Game of Thrones treatment on the scoreboard and on the teams Twitter account.
Starting pitcher Zach Davies:
The promotion celebrating the wildly popular HBO series was one of about two dozen theme nights the Brewers are staging this season. A limited number of special ticket packages that include a bobblehead or another souvenir are sold for the themed games.
Packages for the Game of Thrones night and the Beerded Brewer game sold out, said team spokesman Tyler Barnes.
Tuesday night, 32,605 fans were on hand for a 3-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The next themed game is Coaches vs Cancer on Sept. 2. That package includes a Craig Counsell mini-bobblehead and a pregame parade on the warning track.
