  • Name That Tune…Brewers Edition 

    If you were at any of the games during Opening Weekend, along with taking in the new concession items (stay tuned for the return of “What John and Cait Ate” during the next homestand!) and other changes around the ballpark, you might have found yourself taking in some new music as well, especially as our players walked up to the plate, or our pitchers entered the games.. .

  • Ryan Braun wins appeal of positive drug test 

    Milwaukee Brewers leftfielder Ryan Braun became the first major-league player to have a positive drug test overturned when he was informed Thursday that an arbitration panel ruled in his favor on appeal and decided against a 50-game suspension for the reigning National League most valuable player. Someone familiar with the decision said the appeal went Braun's way not so much on contesting the result of the test but the testing process itself, some kind of technicality. And it was arbitrator Shyam Das who decided to rule in favor on that technicality, making it a 2-1 decision by the three-man panel. More »

  • Sources: Tigers land Prince Fielder in megadeal 

    Boras’ top free-agent client, first baseman Prince Fielder, has agreed to a nine-year, $214 million contract with the Tigers, according to major-league sources. Fielder's deal with the Tigers does not include an opt-out provision, a source said. Tigers general manager David Dombrowski recently told ESPN.com that Fielder, “doesn’t fit for us. He’s looking for a long-term deal and that just doesn’t fit.” Either Dombrowski was shading the truth, or Tigers owner Mike Ilitch — who has worked well with Boras in the past — made a last-minute call to sign Fielder..

  • Dan Patrick: Braun ‘may be innocent’ 

    Citing information from "somebody involved in the process," sports commentator Dan Patrick said on his radio show Monday morning that "Ryan Braun may be an innocent man" and "may be exonerated." If this happens, obviously it would be tremendous news for the Brewers and Braun, who tested positive for a banned substance in October and appealed the finding before an arbitration panel in New York last week. It also would make it an even bigger atrocity that news of the positive test was leaked to ESPN, which reported it in early December..

    Many fans are calling it the greatest weekend in Wisconsin sports history, a confluence of success by its three most popular sporting entities, achieved entirely on home soil, setting the stage for what could be an historic stretch.
    The Big Three of the Brewers, Packers and University of Wisconsin football team combined for four commanding victories in a span of 30 hours, generating a synergistic electricity that spread from Milwaukee to Madison to Green Bay, with many fans going online to post photos of their tickets as proof of witnessing more than one in person.

  • Brewers, Badgers send fans to sports nirvana 

    It was an autumn Saturday to savor, from Milwaukee to Madison to sporting magic.

    And if you listened real close, you'd swear the roar of the crowd rolled right down I-94.

    In the afternoon at Miller Park, the Brewers opened the National League Division Series with a thrilling 4-1 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks.

    In the evening, under the lights at Camp Randall Stadium, Wisconsin gave a Big Ten football welcome to Nebraska in a blowout win, 48-17.

    Brewer blue and Badger red, part of the lifeblood of Wisconsin sports, and part of what may be the state's greatest sports weekend.. .

    Dan Vaccaro has his tickets, his gear and his game plan and is ready for what he calls the Wisconsin Sports Trifecta.

    From Milwaukee to Madison to Green Bay, Vaccaro will have a front-row seat - well, make that a few nosebleed seats - and bear witness to three big games and three storied teams in about 30 hours.

  • Braun, Fielder are perfect bookends to Brewers’ success 

    On the surface, Milwaukee Brewers teammates Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder appear to be the Odd Couple of Clout, with little in common other than their propensity to launch baseballs to the nether regions of major-league ballparks.

    Braun is SoCal cool, with ownership stakes in trendy restaurants and a clothing line. He was cursed with GQ looks and the athletic ability to rope a double into either corner while falling out of bed in the dark.

    Fielder grew up around ballparks, the son of a major-leaguer, and there is nothing dapper about him. More »

  • Aaron Rodgers, Everybody Wants To Know: What Do You Think Of Tony Plush? 

    Aaron Rodgers joined ESPN Milwaukee with Jason Wilde to discuss why he hasn't gotten any high profile gigs like GQ covers despite being the reigning Super Bowl MVP, if he's a fan of the Brewers and Tony Plush, if there's a Plush-type character in the Packers' locker room, what he learned about egos last year during the Packers run to the title, his crazy facial hair, the season finally getting started and why he doesn't think the level of play will be sloppy to start the year like so many are expecting. .

  • Reconciling your Brewers/Packers sports viewing dilemma this fall 

    We Wisconsinites stand only a handful of months removed from that cold and dark post-Super Bowl, pre-Spring Training period during which the Bucks were the only semblance of professional athletics on display in our state. And the Bucks only, like, half counted then anyway. More »
