Ready to contribute, Carlos Santana makes Brewers debut Saturday against the Braves

ATLANTA – Batting third and playing first base for the Milwaukee Brewers, Carlos Santana.

The Brewers first trade-deadline acquisition after being sent over from the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday, Santana arrived at Truist Park on Saturday ahead of the game against the Atlanta Braves with hopes of improving the team’s offense, defense and dance moves.

“Baseball is hard,” said Santana, who hinted that some potential victory celebrations were in the works. “Winning is hard. When you win, do something fun so you want to win again the next day.”

Santana, 37, was already providing a veteran presence in the clubhouse upon his arrival.
