NOW: Brewers fever heats up ahead of NLCS Game 2 at American Family Field

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The Milwaukee Brewers host Game 2 of the National League Championship Series (NLCS) at 4 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 12 after winning Game 1 in front of thousands of fans.

Mike Curkov talked with some of the first fans to arrive at American Family Field, including a fan wearing Brewers player Garrett Mitchell's game-worn pants.

Milwaukee Downtown Business Improvement District #21 gave away free Brewers items ahead of the game, including towels that say "Win Our Way" and keychains. Fans lined up for them.

Osa Ennis, who was in Section 103 for Game 1 and plans to attend Game 2, said "I think this year we're going to go all the way."

Temperatures feel more like summer than October, with high temperatures threatening to take over the 1995 record high temperature for the day of 84 degrees.
