0:00With the Milwaukee Brewers today, March 7th, Brewers pitcher DL Hall made a surprise appearance for Gray Britain and a World Baseball Classic Exhibition game this week. The team borrowed him from Milwaukee to help with pitching needs and he delivered three solid innings. He allowed just one hit and one unearned run while throwing 45 pitches.
