(Using selective memory, as this would apply more to a few months before December, 2011) - Anytime I draw something Brewers-related with Tony La Russa, I think of Brew Crew Ball. Specifically, the awesome series of comics by Nullacct.

Also, happy holidays to everybody - Hope you've had safe travels, or that the people visiting you had safe travels. This could also be seen as a belated Hanukkah gift to Braun, because Santa is about to take a pitch for him. There's no way I'd ever draw anyone getting plunked, though, by a pitch not thrown by Livan Hernandez.

Title: (Oh, no-ho-ho!) The Unwritten Santa Rule

Starring Tony La Russa, various members of the Milwaukee Brewers team/staff, Santa and some tiny Reindeer. The most famous, being Rudolph.
