MILWAUKEE — The hot-button issue over here at Miller Park in the wake of the Milwaukee Brewers' 1-0 win over the St. Louis Cardinals Monday afternoon seems to be the celebration that ensued after Bill Hall's game-winning hit.

Rather than celebrating on the field, the Brewers sprinted into the clubhouse and celebrated inside. That raised some eyebrows because the Cardinals have apparently expressed their displeasure in the past for how Milwaukee players generally celebrate a win — by untucking their jerseys.

Brewers players denied the notion that their indoors celebration was motivated by the Cardinals' sentiments. Milwaukee manager Ken Macha was asked about the whole situation before Tuesday's game.

“I’m going to go back to when we had the beaning incident with Ryan Braun (earlier this season against Pittsburgh)," he said. "There are a lot of things in this game that, I’m old school, that I would look at as something that probably shouldn’t be done. I’m not going to deter my players from going ahead and doing that, because everybody in the league does certain stuff. Just watch (Mets closer) Francisco Rodriguez when he gets the last out or the guy (closer Brian) Wilson from the Giants. So guys cross home plate, point up to heaven and pound on their chest. There’s all kind of things going on that 25 years ago people would take exception to.”

Macha pointed out that celebrations have become more prominent and over-the-top in all sports over the years.

"I’m just saying if the opposition feels bad about that, then fine," he said. "But just so they’re not doing their celebrations, either.”
