Today's grid allowed me to dive into one of my favorite factoids I learned recently because of I.G. A couple of weeks ago, the Brewers reliever Jerry Augustine popped into my head (I think it was the "pitched at least one game" and I did a bit of background on him and turns out he spent his entire 10 year career with the Brew Crew, but most interestingly, he was a product of UW-LaCrosse's program. I didn't attend UW-L, but I was across the river at WSU in the early '90s and spent a few fun nights in that beer-sotted college town. When I saw Augustine played there, I dug deeper and found a couple of familiar (if faintly) names for Twins fans--Tom Klawitter and current Triple A pitcher Caleb Boushley also played their college ball there.
