Aaron Ashby meets his match: Brewers fan steals show at World Series parade - USA Today
Milwaukee Brewers fans are out in full force to celebrate the franchise's first World Series title with the championship parade on Friday. One fan took things a step further, and got the proper recognition for it.
Amid the sea of fans glad in navy blue and gold, team captain Christian Yelich spotted a supporter who bore a striking resemblance to relief pitcher Aaron Ashby – in more ways than just the beard and glasses. This lookalike was dressed head-to-toe in a full Brewers uniform with Ashby's cream No. 26 jersey.
Yelich pointed at the fan in amusement of the tribute and immediately called Ashby over to get a look for himself. The doppelgangers stretched out their arms in a long-distance embrace of each other, both of them taking off their caps to reveal a bald head underneath.
Ashby was dominant out of the bullpen for the Brewers throughout the entire postseason run, pitching 18 scoreless innings over nine appearances with 20 strikeouts and a 0.44 WHIP. The 28-year-old lefty gave up just one hit in his three World Series outings (5⅔ innings total) and struck out nine batters with no walks for a 0.18 WHIP.
The bus rolled on after the wholesome moment with fans chanting MVP towards William Contreras, who was standing toward the back.
