MILWAUKEE (AP) – Eleven people were injured Saturday when an escalator malfunctioned at American Family Field in Milwaukee following the Brewers’ loss to the Chicago Cubs, a team official said.
Six people were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries and five others were treated at the ballpark, according to Tyler Barnes, the senior vice president of communications and affiliate operations for the Milwaukee Brewers.
The escalator’s malfunction resulted “in an increased downward speed,” Barnes said in a statement.
Other details were not immediately available.
Saturday’s 5-3 loss ended the Brewers´ winning streak at five games.
Garrett Mitchell may have replaced Tyler Black on the active roster but that’s not a direct route to regular playing time. How can the Brewers find a way to integrate their talented young outfielder into the lineup, without disrupting a successful unit?

I wrote recently about the improvements Garrett Mitchell had shown during his rehab assignment at Triple-A Nashville this year that may indulge a slightly higher level of optimism about the consistency in his bat. He’s a high-octane player with a higher ceiling than either Blake Perkins or Sal Frelick, but both of the current center fielders have been productive of late, so how could Mitchell gain playing time early on?
