Milwaukee Brewers

The Milwaukee Brewers are a professional baseball team in Major League Baseball's (MLB) National League Central Division, playing their home games at American Family Field (capacity 41,900) since 2001. Originally founded as the Seattle Pilots in 1969, the team relocated to Milwaukee in 1970 under owner Bud Selig, and later switched from the American League to the National League in 1998. They have made 11 postseason appearances, highlighted by their only World Series trip in 1982, where they lost to the St. Louis Cardinals in seven games, and their first playoff return in 2008 via a wild card berth. Notable achievements include Robin Yount's AL MVP in 1982 and Rollie Fingers' 1981 MVP, the first ever for an American League relief pitcher. Despite their competitive history, the Brewers remain one of five MLB teams without a World Series title, holding the second-longest active championship drought (57 seasons) behind the Cleveland Guardians.
