ESPN MLB

HISTORY:

Miller Park is the only stadium in North America to feature a convertible, fan-shaped roof, guaranteeing that baseball will be played, even on the most inclement of Wisconsin days. Construction began in October 1996, with the ballpark funded by a sales tax in five counties. The Brewers contributed $90 million to the project, including a 20-year naming rights deal with the Miller Brewing Co. Miller Park is a four-tier seating bowl consisting of the field level, loge level, club level and terrace level. The playing surface is natural grass.

Soak up the scene:

Drive up to Miller Park a couple of hours before opening pitch and you'd think there was a football game going on inside that day. Tailgating is a big part of game day in Milwaukee, with Brewers fans filling the parking lot before every game grilling up bratwurst and sausages and enjoying their favorite beverages. Miller products are highlighted inside the park, but there also is a fine selection of local micro-brews on tap.
