Brewers fly Waukesha Christmas parade survivor to game in Pittsburgh

WAUKESHA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- The Brewers had a special guest at their away game Tuesday night, Aug. 2. 

Last week, the team and Aurora Health Care surprised 17-year-old Tyler Pudleiner with game and plane tickets to Tuesday night's game in Pittsburgh. 

Pudleiner, who is an avid baseball player and fan, got autographs from several players and General Manager Craig Counsell, while also getting to throw a baseball with the GM.

He was hurt while marching in the Waukesha Christmas parade in November of last year. 

The teen says baseball has helped him in his recovery.
