Milwaukee Brewers Tickets

2009 Milwaukee Brewers MLB Preview:
The Milwaukee Brewers come into 2009 after completing a highly successful 2008 season. The Brew Crew competed until the final days of the '08 season to earn a spot in the National League playoffs. Gone in 2009 is hired gun CC Sabathia, who moved on to a huge contract with the Yankees. Milwaukee returns a roster stacked with talent, though. From pitchers Jeff Suppan and Braden Looper to position players Prince Fielder and Rickie Weeks; there is no reason to think the 2009 Milwaukee Brewers cannot be even better than last year. Better for the Brewers could mean a trip to the World Series.

The Milwaukee Brewers play baseball in the Central Division of Major League Baseball's National League. The Brewers franchise was founded in 1969 in Seattle as the Seattle Pilots, but moved to Milwaukee after only one year - a result of Bud Selig's long standing efforts to bring baseball back to Milwaukee since the Braves moved to Atlanta. Milwaukee's glory days came in the early '80s when the team won the American League's Eastern Division twice (the team would move to the National league for the 1998 season), and played for the World Series in 1982, losing to the St. Louis Cardinals. That team was led by Cecil Cooper, Ben Ogilvie, and Gorman Thomas. The current team hopes to surpass that team's success.

The Milwaukee Brewers play their home games at Miller Park in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Miller Park holds over 42,000 spectators and has a unique retractable roof that operates much like the roof of a convertible car. The stadium is well known for it's boisterous crowds and parking lot tailgating, making a Brewers game more of a cultural experience than just a sporting event.
