Description

Many of us know of Milwaukee’s famous beer brewers, such as Schlitz, Pabst, and Miller, but these pages contain the tale of the original baseball Brewers. The Milwaukee Brewers of the American Association spent 51 seasons (1902-1952) at the city’s near north side. To have had the opportunity to stretch out within the sun-soaked stands of Borchert Field right through that era used to be to witness minor league baseball at its easiest. The Brewers were the second one-winningest franchise within the league’s history, and names like Tom “Sugar Boy” Dougherty and Nick “Tomato Face” Cullop were once household words during the city. This book stands as a tribute to the colorful history of this team and to all of the former players, coaches, and managers who ever wore the woolens for Milwaukee.
