Dearly beloved, the Milwaukee Brewers are gathered here today to get through this thing called a road trip.

The Brewers donned purple on a flight to Minneapolis for their series with the Twins, a nod to the color often worn by Prince, the musical genius and Twin Cities legend who died last April.

Many major-league teams have themed trips during the grind of the season. The Brewers have dressed like cowboys in 2011 and were inspired by 1980s fashions in 2012.

There is a lot in this year's look for Brewers fans to unpack.

Front and center, Ryan Braun looks like a perfect fit in a "Purple Rain"-inspired costume. That begs the question of where exactly did he find that get-up? Next to Braun, Matt Garza is channeling New Power Generation-era Prince.

Jonathan Villar, who has frustrated fans with his inconsistency this season, certainly won't endear himself to people around the state by wearing a Minnesota Vikings jersey.

Then there are the players who took things in a weirder direction.

Stephen Vogt looks comfortable in a Willy Wonka outfit. Zach Davies is inexplicably holding a purple parasol. Who knew Jesus Aguilar was a fan of the MLS' Orlando City? And, by process of elimination, it seems to be Josh Hader inside that purple dinosaur.

Maybe a stop at First Avenue will be on the docket during the trip.
