“It’ll be a rough day,” manager Craig Counsell told Wis. Morning News. “We’ll put up signs (in the clubhouse) reminding players to hydrate.”

“As the birthdays pile up, it’s less exciting,” he admitted. “(But) well wishes are always nice.”
“(My family) spent the day together, which was a great present for me.”
