Bartenders Pub in Baltimore Offering Free Shots When Chris Davis Gets a Hit
A Baltimore bar is trying to drum up business with a promotion built around Chris Davis' historically bad start to the 2018 season.
Per Edward Lee of the Baltimore Sun, Bartenders Pub is offering patrons free Dr Pepper shooters whenever the Orioles first baseman gets a hit.
"Baseball season for us is big business," Bartenders Pub co-owner Dana Coker said. "With the team not doing so well, it's affected our business. We just can't seem to do any specials that encourage people to come to the bar and watch baseball with us."
