    How Milwaukee Kept the Brewers

    MMAC Senior Advisor Tim Sheehy talks about how the smallest market in baseball, with one of the oldest stadiums, and least well financed ownership group, was facing a crisis, that was in the early 1990’s. A crisis that would have left Milwaukee without a team. The answer as to how the 2026 Brewers are competing in World Series goes back to 1995 with some well-known, and not so well-known leaders who made a new ballpark a reality, and this World Series 31 years later a possibility. How was he involved in this effort and who were the key players? How was the legislation to create a new ballpark passed? How was the stadium financed? Why was this needed?
