It was not a vacation for Bartelak. He brought his computer to the bar to watch his favorite team.
"Sending emails out. Trying to correspond with my people at work," Bartelak said. "I have to do the best that I can to support the team. 12 o’clock game, you got to do what you got to do. Work and watch the Brewers at the same time.:
