As if Milwaukeeans need another reason to resent Chicago...
Sports Illustrated magazine conducted a survey of more than 454 Major League Baseball players earlier this year and Milwaukee and Detroit tied for "least favorite road trip."
The Great Lakes neighbors each garnered 13% of the vote while Chicago was voted "favorite road trip" by an overwhelming 30%.
Milwaukee fared particularly poorly with players under 24. Nearly 31% of those players listed our town as their least favorite stop. You wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that the Brewers have the best home record in the majors (45-26) or if players just hate the nightly Sausage Race.
Here are the complete results, which hit newsstands tomorrow:
