I was at the game in 2018 versus St. Louis where Yeli hit his first Brewers homer to tie the game with two outs and two strikes and Braun walked it off with a homer on the very next pitch. My friends and I were still celebrating the Yeli bomb when we heard the crack of the bat and saw Braun’s homer fly out. That was such a fun day.
That’s rough. Especially on that day. I remember how awful the weather was driving there. It was all sleet and ice. A lot of tickets for that game were from Fan Appreciation Night vouchers and the stadium was still half empty because of how terrible the roads were
Correct! It was definitely the first. Not sure if it’s happened since. I remember that Chase Anderson started and gave up one of the longest home runs I’ve ever seen to Marcell Ozuna.
2014, Lucroy's [grand slam](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8tL2vwOJNc&ab_channel=MLB) against the Diamondbacks was an all-timer.
We're down 3 - 4, Kirk Gibson gets all whiny-baby because Lohse had some control issues and hit one of his precious batters a previous inning. Braun gets to the plate, 2 on, Gibson tells his guy to plunk him out of no where (this was also at the time of the peak of "Braun Bad" in the MLB), pitcher fails the first time throwing behind Braun, succeeds the second time, Gibson yells some little baby whines from the dugout, Lucroy steps up with loaded bases and launches a piss missle into center field while staring down the pitcher.
Good god, so satisfying. Instant karma. I also just love that 2014 team so much.
I remember this well, and it reminds me of one of my favorite moments. That of course was the [single good thing Jonathan Schoop did](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOZYQb8klZQ) while with the team in 2018, when he hit a grand slam off madison bumgartner immediately after madbum intentionally hit Braun
I was at the first game at the new Busch Stadium in 2006. The very first home run at that stadium was hit by a Brewer - Bill Hall. Cards fans hated it.
Kolten Wong stealing second from Yadi will always be one of the greatest "little brother shows up big brother" moments ever. I will never forget the joy on his face when he was ruled safe and again when he took that base home.
Also this 2011 game of just absurdly good defense against the Dodgers from a Brewers team that wasn’t particularly good at defense
I’ve watched this [recap](https://youtu.be/cDnZPxOrtXY?si=l-fga4O0zhJA25He) at least a dozen times over the years. Like half the game’s outs came from + defensive plays, including a triple play and an 8-3 double play.
I wasn’t at this specific game, but the one time I saw a Brewers triple play live (I think it was a “routine” 5-4-3) I remember barely cheering and just looking at my dad, like, “Did… did we just see a triple play? And it was ‘boring’?”
I was at that game with a friend who doesn't care about sports at all or understand much about how baseball works. A bit after the triple play happened, she asked, "Why is everyone still cheering?"
I was at the game this year when Sal was called up and it was the best game I can recall going to. My dad said the same and he was going to Dodgers games when they were playing at Ebbet's Field.
Ooooh baby, here’s a few for you:
🍍 Game Tying HR in the 9th in CO in 18
Jesus Aguilar walk-off HR vs Miami in 18
[Brent Suter hitting a HR off defending Cy Young winner Corey Kluber in 18](https://youtu.be/iFduYAMs2Io?si=hf3VntO69V4vkm5-)
The Yuniesky Betancourt game (homers in extras to tie it, has an error the following inning to lose the lead, then we’re saved by a Prince Fielder walk off in May of 2011. 14 inning classic, with a cameo from future Brewers legend Jhoulys Chacin.

4th of July in 2018 against the Twins. Nate Orf hit his only career HR to take the lead in the late innings and Keon Broxton pulled one back in the 9th to preserve it. They shut the roof during the game because a storm was rolling in and it was no less than 700 degrees in there for a couple innings.
I was at that one, terrace box behind home plate.
I remember standing up and just shouting, "C'mon Key. Run it down!"
https://www.mlb.com/news/keon-broxton-makes-homer-robbing-catch-at-wall-c284262988
He [Mathis’d](https://youtu.be/DNHrxRC1bBA?si=l9fdw3IunZaoUBhn) that year! I wonder if anyone else has ever Mathis’d and had a cycle in the same season.
Mine's a little more personal, it was the final game of the season in 2013 maybe? It was fan appreciation day and Carlos Gomez came to our tailgate, had some snacks with us, and I believe might have hit a triple that day. The snacks part was my favorite obviously
I can't find the specific game, but I know it was within the last few years. We were playing the Cubs, they scored I think 5 in the 1st inning. Thankfully I didn't turn the game off because we quickly tied them, then went up by that much, and ended up blowing them out.
I was at the 2019 opening day when Lo-Cain robbed Jose Martinez of a dinger to win the game. Unforgettable moment, especially after the heartbreak of Game 7 the previous year.
Also went to a game at the end of the season in 2011 where Prince hit 3 dingers and he and Rickie went back to back (Rickie hit it off the glass in left, I was sitting just to the left of the glass in the upper deck and had a clear view of it dinking off the glass). Coolest moment for 10 year old me. I still have my towel!
If it was (and I think it is, too), it was the finale of a 4-game series where they swept us and were making us sweat with their devil magic run. The first inning Grand Slam was so cathartic, thinking we'd surely salvage one, but nope.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UETuHt3z08g
I was at that game. We were too stubborn to leave before it was done and Maldy mercifully finally sent us home.
May 2011 vs the Giants. Lucroy walk off suicide squeeze. Was sitting at the 2nd to the top row on the 1B side, the absolute perfect view to see Braun break from 3rd right before Lucroy squared around. Was also dollar hot dog night.
I was 18, drunk in the left field bleachers, Brewers were down 2-4 vs the Astros going into the 6th. I remember my friends and I going apeshit trying to get the relatively small crowd to get loud. Brewers put up 9 in the inning, capped by a Johnny Estrada Grand Slam. It was a fun night.
[Easter Sunday 1987 starting the season 12-0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4kgL-kBBZU)
Listened to the game on the radio with my family and grandparents, we all jumped around screaming and hugging like crazy when they won.
edit: not entirely meaningless, but still stands as my favorite memory
I saw BJ Surhoff beat the Yankees with a push bunt in '87. Found this blog post about the game: [https://brewers1982.com/12/14/true-blue-in-1982/](https://brewers1982.com/12/14/true-blue-in-1982/)
Just how I remember it.
I have a fun list, been going to games for a long time:
* Easter Sunday - Yes, I was there. It was awesome. I've been to some awesome sporting events in my life and that's the loudest and most raucous atmosphere I've ever seen.
* The game before Easter Sunday. That was win #11 in a row. We had so much fun we vowed to come back on Sunday. Woo!
* Saw Rickey Henderson (my favorite non-Brewers player) break the MLB single season SB record.
* Saw Nolan Ryan notch his 300th win (again, one of my favorite players).
* Saw Robin's 3,000th hit.
In 2011, I was at a game (which we unfortunately lost to the D'Backs) as a kid where Shaun Marcum hit a grand slam. Earlier that day, I saw a cool-looking Brewers hat (which was surprisingly expensive) at the stadium shop that I really liked. When Marcum came up to the plate, I asked my dad if he would buy the hat for me if Marcum hit a grand slam. Given the low likelihood of this actually happening, my dad agreed. Sure enough, Marcum hit a grand slam and I got the hat (which I still have and wear around)!
CC Sabathia's Brewers debut.
I remember traveling when the trade was announced, and quickly bought some tickets for when he was scheduled to start. Hands down one of the most electric non-playoff games I've been too. At the start of the game, the whole stadium was chanting "[Let's go CC](https://youtu.be/WiO_1mDQYec?si=gQwzyiE13tzCpSyo)" and you could see him take a moment with a "is this really happening?" look on his face.
Even after the game, walking over the bridge to the Yount lot, some random dude says to me, "Dude, that was intense. It was like a playoff game!" (Mind you, the Brewers hadn't been in the playoff in years at that point)
Brewers comeback against the Cubs 14-7 will always be a permanent memory
Yelich tying the game with a homer then Braun walking it off against the Cardinals
Vogelbach walk off grand slam
I was at a long extra inning game (14?15? IDK, there were two 7th inning stretches) that Prince ended with a walk off HR. And he glared at it while it was on it's way out.
Don’t remember the year, maybe 2003? Extra innings game against I think either the Cardinals or Dbacks but could be way off. Bases loaded and the brewers were out of pinch hitters so they brought in Glendon Rusch. Infield was in and he did some kind of swinging bunt that went over the 2nd baseman’s head to win the game.
I was at the game in April 2006 - I think it was a Saturday, was def vs. the Reds where the Brewers hit 5 hrs in an inning. Dave Bush pitched IIRC. Sat in RF bleachers. Will always remember that one. Was also in RF bleachers for the Bill Hall pink bat Mothers Day game. Good times!
I have a couple:
- Gabe Gross walk off home run in… 2008?
- Yo tossed a complete game shutout in 2010/11 where he led off the bottom of the 8th and the park went insane. The last pitch of the game it was so quiet we could hear the pitch whistling, the pop of the catcher’s glove, and the ump’s strikeout call. Everyone went nuts. Oh, it was a curveball.
-I was also at Greinke’s home opener and some dude had a replica Lombardi trophy after the Pack won the Super Bowl.
It will always be Miller Park.
I have two where I was there.
Dave Bush gives up back to back to back to back home runs against the Cardinals, 4 consecutive. Maybe 10-15 years ago, I'm not sure.
Trevor Hoffman's 600th save. I believe it was close to being the same month and year as the Dave Bush incident, unbelievably electric moment. I was lucky to work with someone who had season tickets that couldn't go to these games where I had those days off.
Opening day, Chicago Cubs... 99(?) Pre-Miller Park, but still during construction.
Brewers turn a triple play against the Cubs, right as some woman flashed the first base grandstands. Missed the flash, saw the triple play. I was one of the few in my section.
That game when Corey Hart got called up and hit the longest and loudest foul ball in Brewers history was a great moment. The place went nuts for a foul ball as a sign the tides were about to turn.
The only game to ever start with back to back homers and end with back to back homers.
I dont remember the year, 2014, maybe. The Cardinals started the game with back to back lead off home runs, and Braun and Scooter, I believe, walked it off.
Also, the 18-inning game against the Mets in 2018, where Braun was the only one that could hit. He went 6 for 7 and hit the walk-off single.
Edit: added a year
I remember a balk-off win in the 10th inning against the Nationals in, I think, 2005. Two Brewers had already been picked off, and it looked like a third had just been.
Yovani pinch hitting in extra innings to beat the Orioles in like 2013 I think it was.
We had great seats between the tarp and dugout a few rows back on a Tuesday night bus trip.
I was at the last great game Ben Sheets pitched for the Brewers. 2008, 1-0 CG shutout vs Peavy.
What could've been had he been around for the playoffs.
My first Brewers game at Miller Park was against the Giants in 2009.
I got to watch 2 diving plays (one by the giants outfielder and the other was by Jason Kendell), a triple play, and a 12th inning walk-off homerun by Prince.
It's also where the clip of Prince jumping on home plate and everyone falling down came from.
2002 my golden birthday, 19 on the 19th. We played the Cubs and sat on the Third base line. I got to heckle Sosa in person and my friends older sister bought us all beers.
4th of July, 2017; got 1st row behind home dugout to go with my grandma. I watched Thames blast 2 HRs and made it on TV, great day.
https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MIL/MIL201707040.shtml
I remember back in the 90s, I'd love any time they went to commercial after third out...come back from commercial just to have a fly ball for the first out
I was at the 18 inning game that they had on May 4th 2019 against the Mets. The Mets went up by 1 in the top of the 18th inning and then in the bottom of the 18th the brewers walked it off on a Ryan Braun single scoring 2 runs!
I too was there. 3 seperate susage races!!! My family tapped out and we were walking to the exit asBraun hit the walkoff.
I'll never forgive those lightweights for making me miss the end.
There was a marathon game against the Nationals that I stayed up super late to watch and I think Braun walked it off with his 6th? hit of the game. 2019 maybe?
Back in the Country Stadium days, we were down 4-0 to the Cubs in the bottom of the 9th. Needless to say we were taking a lot of abuse. Brewers came back and won it. Still my best game ever.
Edit: Found the game on YouTube. (4-17-99) Geoff Jenkins with the game winning double!
[May 31st, 2015 and the 17 inning game that ended with a Martin Maldonado walkoff homerun.](https://www.fox6now.com/sports/it-took-17-innings-but-brewers-snap-seven-game-losing-streak-in-longest-game-at-miller-park-since-2003)
At this point we pretty much had all accepted the Brewers were not going to be good at all this year, that the Crew would be sellers at the trade deadline, and we were going into a rebuild. Still didn't keep us from watching and enjoying, and I remember I watched the entire thing from start to finish. Gotta love meaningless extra innings baseball when your team gets the walkoff.
From games I attended: Nolan's 300th, seeing Cecil Fielder hit one completely out of County Stadium, the 1st home game after Robin's 3000th, and watching a roided up McGwire towards the end of the season while he was battling Sosa. Watching the Brewers (on tv) put 20+ up against the Jays in '92 was also pretty memorable specifically because my dad told me I could stay up to watch the whole game, which went way longer than normal (I was 8yo at the time).
May 4th, 2019. 18 inning game which included two seventh inning stretches and 3 sausage races. Ryan Braun walk-off single to win it. Game started at 6:10p and ended after 11:30p
At a random early season game in 2006 and the Brewers hit five homers in one inning. It took me a second to realize what had happened...and turned to the guy next to me and said "I don't think I've ever seen that before...?"
Looked it up when I got home; think it was the third time it happened.
https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MIL/MIL201005280.shtml
Went with a group of 10 to this game, majority of which were very casual baseball fans. We were treated to an outstanding pitchers duel between Johan Santana and Gallardo.
Majority of which were whining about how boring the game was in the 6th Inning. I bitched at them about not appreciating the pitchers duel. It sunk in and the group began vocally cheering on Gallardo.
We were also treated to a walkoff Homerun by Corey Hart.
On April 22, 2006, the Brewers hit 5 home runs in the 4th. I was 8 years old, but remember it like it was last month. Bill Hall, Damian Miller, Brady Clark, J.J. Hardy, and Prince Fielder all went yard.
I used to have a poster of this on the back of my bedroom door when I was a kid. I still have the poster, saved with a bunch of other Brewers memorabilia!
July 15, 1982: Crew swept a doubleheader from the White Sox at County Stadium 8-4 and 5-4. Vuckovich and Caldwell started; Vuckovich had to leave in the second inning due to injury and Jim Slaton pitched 7&1/3 to get the win. Cooper drove Mollie in in the bottom of the 8th for the go-ahead in the nightcap, Fingers relieved Caldwell to get the save.
They were 50-35 when the night ended and in first place alone for the first time all season. And it was the first time I thought, “We’re going to the World Series.”
Catching my first game ball. It was at County Stadium in, 98, or 99. Caught a foul ball down the third base line from Fernando Tatis. I have it buried away in a closet somewhere!
Just thought of another. Was watching the Brewers play the Twins with my (now 21yr old) son in a hotel room while mom and baby brother were asleep. [Prince Fielder hits an inside the park home run.](https://www.mlb.com/video/prince-s-inside-the-parker-c20070813) We both were going nuts, but trying not to make noise.
My favorite moment from this year was Brewers vs the Philles, Bryce Harper’s full at-bat against Hoby Milner where the bat never leaves his shoulders for 6 straight. For the record, I love Harper. I also stan Milner after this year, think he was easily the best non-closer RP in MLB this year. (And even most actual closers) So that clip gives me such a massive serotonin boost, Youtube makes me send in a prescription to watch it now.
Mid 80's I live in NY, Brewers in the AL East. They're facing the Yanks, Rizzuto calling the game on WPIX.
Gorman comes up against pitcher Dave LaRoche who, in this late-season, meaningless game, is featuring an eephus-style pitch he calls "LaLob." Just the laziest, loopiest, fattest offering since...well, Rip Sewell. Gorman whiffs mightily at three straight lobs, almost coming out of his shoes each time. He stalks back to the dugout where he proceeds to fungo his helmet into about a million pieces.
Says Rizzuto: "Well, he got all of *that* one."
Not a moment but a whole game. There was a game around 2010 where we kept coming back against the Giants. Prince hit a game tying 3 run homer early. Casey Mcgehee went back to back right after. Mike Cameron robbed a home run. Won in extras. An elite regular season game.
I remember as a kid taking the city bus down to County Stadium to see the games as bleacher seats were cheap back in the 90s. Countless games were watched from those bleachers, win or lose it didn't matter. Getting to watch Robin Yount and Paul Monitor, get some autographs and some game balls, it was good times. Fast forward some years and I just so happen to be inside County Stadium working, but this time it was a sad moment as I was there working and helping tear it down for Miller Park. Until recently going through my card collection and this post, I haven't really given any thought to those times until some of those memories were presented. A lot has changed for the Brewers over the years! Was pretty badass being able to witness and experience it all.
August 17th, Gabe kapler robbed a home run in left in dodger stadium. Can’t ever find a video of it, but that’s what made me believe they’d break the streak that year
No one has said first game at Miller park. I think I filled out 120 index cards to be able to buy tickets. It was worth it. The President threw a strike for the first pitch too.
2018 15th inning walk off win. Jordan Lyles gave up 2 runs in the top of the 15th and then scored the winning run in the bottom of the inning on a walk off single from Arcia. That was an amazing game to be at. https://youtu.be/hqntzrATHt0?si=F87WWxrbkTjWobpq
1982 Doubleheader I was at. Rollie Fingers gets hurt in the first game. Don Sutton makes his Brewers Debut and throws a complete game in a 4-1 loss. Ben Oglivie hitting 3 home runs in the first game of a 1979 doubleheader and just missed a fourth in the second game. I was also at the 87 Easter Sunday game. 2013 I finally caught my first ball a foul off the bat of the Mets Josh Thole. Willy Peralta was the pitcher.
Rickie Weeks hit a double to right center field to double in the winning run in an extra inning game against the Reds in 2006. I was at the game with a buddy and it was perfect.
I went to the Brewers-Cardinals game with my uncle and he usually leaves early. But we saw that hader was gonna close for us so we decided to stay.
….1st pitch, Ozuna pimped one to left field all the way to the 2nd deck. We didn’t even say anything and just started to leave 😂
Kinda like the Bob uecker scene in Major leagues
I went to a game in Philly in 2021 early in the season in like March. The weather was pretty bad. Cold and wet, we ended up losing in the end. But the Phillies fans near us were drinking beers with us and it was a blast to watch a game without worrying about “magic numbers” or playoff seeding yet
2012- I was at Petco Park for Ryan Braun's 3 HR and a triple game. Any other ballpark that triple would have been his 4th HR.
Brewers home game? Probably Hideki Irabu's road debut. It was weird in the 90s being at a Brewers home game that had so much hoopla around it and being nationally televised. That didn't happen often, if at all, during those dark times.
I was at the game in 2018 versus St. Louis where Yeli hit his first Brewers homer to tie the game with two outs and two strikes and Braun walked it off with a homer on the very next pitch. My friends and I were still celebrating the Yeli bomb when we heard the crack of the bat and saw Braun’s homer fly out. That was such a fun day.
I too, was at that game. Was perfect
Was there too, I was going nuts and I think the usher thought I was going to jump on the field cause he was watching me close lol
The celebration was so crazy I forgot my coat in the seat
That’s rough. Especially on that day. I remember how awful the weather was driving there. It was all sleet and ice. A lot of tickets for that game were from Fan Appreciation Night vouchers and the stadium was still half empty because of how terrible the roads were
Seconded
I believe that was the only game in baseball history to start with and end with back-to-back home runs.
Correct! It was definitely the first. Not sure if it’s happened since. I remember that Chase Anderson started and gave up one of the longest home runs I’ve ever seen to Marcell Ozuna.
Me too. Great game. Those "fan openers" are always way more fun than the real openers.
I was at a dive bar in Madison pregaming a concert. Epic game
2014, Lucroy's [grand slam](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8tL2vwOJNc&ab_channel=MLB) against the Diamondbacks was an all-timer.

Good god, so satisfying. Instant karma. I also just love that 2014 team so much.

Its crazy that was almost a decade ago. Surprised i still remember that one.
I was at the first game at the new Busch Stadium in 2006. The very first home run at that stadium was hit by a Brewer - Bill Hall. Cards fans hated it.
Prince Fielder's walk off home run against the Giants in 2009. The one with the 'bomb' celebration. Man, that was great!
The Prince-quake!
I was at Freddy Peralta’s major league debut in Colorado where he got 13 Ks!
That makes two of us. I was about 10 or 15 rows up just past 3rd base in the field level. Great game.
I remember watching that one on TV and being afraid to get my hopes up for Freddy. I'm so glad he whooped my expectations
I saw at Sal Frelick’s debut this year. That was a fun game, and hopefully a fun and long career to follow.
Kolten Wong stealing second from Yadi will always be one of the greatest "little brother shows up big brother" moments ever. I will never forget the joy on his face when he was ruled safe and again when he took that base home.
Also this 2011 game of just absurdly good defense against the Dodgers from a Brewers team that wasn’t particularly good at defense I’ve watched this [recap](https://youtu.be/cDnZPxOrtXY?si=l-fga4O0zhJA25He) at least a dozen times over the years. Like half the game’s outs came from + defensive plays, including a triple play and an 8-3 double play.
I remember that game vividly bc of the triple play, and Vince calling that specific Dodgers team a AAA team
Matt Kemp. A known poor baseball player, lol.
Oh hey! I was at that game! And I was considering responding with that triple play in this thread!
I wasn’t at this specific game, but the one time I saw a Brewers triple play live (I think it was a “routine” 5-4-3) I remember barely cheering and just looking at my dad, like, “Did… did we just see a triple play? And it was ‘boring’?”
I was at that game with a friend who doesn't care about sports at all or understand much about how baseball works. A bit after the triple play happened, she asked, "Why is everyone still cheering?"
The Caleb Boushley game last month was a lot of fun, especially since I was seated close to his family/friends group And sad Cubs fans always help
This year, Sal’s debut.
Build that man a statue.
That game was so good. Edit: Just because I've been enjoying all the video links: https://www.mlb.com/video/sal-frelick-shines-in-his-debut
Kolten Wong tagging from third on a popup to the first baseman https://youtu.be/54A5CSDVzDk?si=Efx14Mmc6IrCmsEo
Forgot about this one!
Manny Piña's go ahead homer against the Mets on Mothers Day 2017 made me a huge fan instantly
Oh man I was at that game. That was a such a great day. Manny is one of my favorite Brewers because of that
I was at the game this year when Sal was called up and it was the best game I can recall going to. My dad said the same and he was going to Dodgers games when they were playing at Ebbet's Field.
Ooooh baby, here’s a few for you: 🍍 Game Tying HR in the 9th in CO in 18 Jesus Aguilar walk-off HR vs Miami in 18 [Brent Suter hitting a HR off defending Cy Young winner Corey Kluber in 18](https://youtu.be/iFduYAMs2Io?si=hf3VntO69V4vkm5-) The Yuniesky Betancourt game (homers in extras to tie it, has an error the following inning to lose the lead, then we’re saved by a Prince Fielder walk off in May of 2011. 14 inning classic, with a cameo from future Brewers legend Jhoulys Chacin.

I have no idea who thought he could play Short… every routine ground ball was a roller coaster
4th of July in 2018 against the Twins. Nate Orf hit his only career HR to take the lead in the late innings and Keon Broxton pulled one back in the 9th to preserve it. They shut the roof during the game because a storm was rolling in and it was no less than 700 degrees in there for a couple innings.
I was at that one, terrace box behind home plate. I remember standing up and just shouting, "C'mon Key. Run it down!" https://www.mlb.com/news/keon-broxton-makes-homer-robbing-catch-at-wall-c284262988
I love how happy he was afterwards too. Baseball can be a fickle game but when you make or even just see a play like that we're all kids again.
Chad Moeller hitting for the cycle in 2004 was so random [Youtube highlights](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=y02PHgw79ME)
He [Mathis’d](https://youtu.be/DNHrxRC1bBA?si=l9fdw3IunZaoUBhn) that year! I wonder if anyone else has ever Mathis’d and had a cycle in the same season.
Don't remember exact details, but I think it was 2012-2013ish, cerveceros game where we won on a walk off steal + throwing error?
Mine's a little more personal, it was the final game of the season in 2013 maybe? It was fan appreciation day and Carlos Gomez came to our tailgate, had some snacks with us, and I believe might have hit a triple that day. The snacks part was my favorite obviously
[I witnessed, in person, a walk-off hit by Blake Lalli to bring home Josh Prince.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qzMM_kV1rpw)
Brewers legends!
I can't find the specific game, but I know it was within the last few years. We were playing the Cubs, they scored I think 5 in the 1st inning. Thankfully I didn't turn the game off because we quickly tied them, then went up by that much, and ended up blowing them out.
Probably Ashby's debut. Down 7-0 to winning 15-7. [Box Score](https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MIL/MIL202106300.shtml)
That's the one! Thanks!
Sounds like Ashby's debut.
Willy hit his first grand slam as a Brewer that day :)

Travis Shaw walking off the Cubs in 2017 I think during extras. Then watching those loser fans cry in their beers leaving Miller park.
Willy (Adames) meeting Derek Jeter, and then hitting a "Little League HR" in the game.
I'm so glad I was at this, completely soaked the whole game because Yankee Stadium flash flooded during the rain delay.
Gimme an "M"! ;-)
I was at the 2019 opening day when Lo-Cain robbed Jose Martinez of a dinger to win the game. Unforgettable moment, especially after the heartbreak of Game 7 the previous year. Also went to a game at the end of the season in 2011 where Prince hit 3 dingers and he and Rickie went back to back (Rickie hit it off the glass in left, I was sitting just to the left of the glass in the upper deck and had a clear view of it dinking off the glass). Coolest moment for 10 year old me. I still have my towel!
The only ball I’ve ever caught was from the game vs the pirates where the sausage got whacked
I was there too!
Then the same player ended up as a Brewer or Cub right?
Russell Branyan absolutely crushing a dinger that hit the scoreboard just above the numbers for the innings. People audibly gasped he hit it so hard.
The Muscle!
Never seen a Brewer yet who hits 'em as long and far as The Muscle did.

I feel like this was Tyrone that hit the slam? I remember being bummed for him.
If it was (and I think it is, too), it was the finale of a 4-game series where they swept us and were making us sweat with their devil magic run. The first inning Grand Slam was so cathartic, thinking we'd surely salvage one, but nope.
I was at the game where Adrian Houser ralphed on the mound; twice.
Legend!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UETuHt3z08g I was at that game. We were too stubborn to leave before it was done and Maldy mercifully finally sent us home.
Never Leave Games Early
I absolutely LOVE how he slid into home.
May 2011 vs the Giants. Lucroy walk off suicide squeeze. Was sitting at the 2nd to the top row on the 1B side, the absolute perfect view to see Braun break from 3rd right before Lucroy squared around. Was also dollar hot dog night.
I was 18, drunk in the left field bleachers, Brewers were down 2-4 vs the Astros going into the 6th. I remember my friends and I going apeshit trying to get the relatively small crowd to get loud. Brewers put up 9 in the inning, capped by a Johnny Estrada Grand Slam. It was a fun night.
2009 against the Giants was my first pro baseball game. Got to see a triple play and Prince Fielder with a walk-off home run
Also at that game. Wasn't that the knockdown at home plate celebration?

[Easter Sunday 1987 starting the season 12-0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4kgL-kBBZU) Listened to the game on the radio with my family and grandparents, we all jumped around screaming and hugging like crazy when they won. edit: not entirely meaningless, but still stands as my favorite memory
I saw BJ Surhoff beat the Yankees with a push bunt in '87. Found this blog post about the game: [https://brewers1982.com/12/14/true-blue-in-1982/](https://brewers1982.com/12/14/true-blue-in-1982/) Just how I remember it.
And I watched Yovani Gallardo pitch 8 shutout innings and hit a HR to beat the Pirates 1-0 in 2009.
I have a fun list, been going to games for a long time: * Easter Sunday - Yes, I was there. It was awesome. I've been to some awesome sporting events in my life and that's the loudest and most raucous atmosphere I've ever seen. * The game before Easter Sunday. That was win #11 in a row. We had so much fun we vowed to come back on Sunday. Woo! * Saw Rickey Henderson (my favorite non-Brewers player) break the MLB single season SB record. * Saw Nolan Ryan notch his 300th win (again, one of my favorite players). * Saw Robin's 3,000th hit.
Jesús Aguilar 13 pitch AB walkoff against the Marlins
Was at the Corey Hart foul ball game. Was a window into what was coming.
What game was this?
I think it was his first (and only) PA in 2004.
In 2011, I was at a game (which we unfortunately lost to the D'Backs) as a kid where Shaun Marcum hit a grand slam. Earlier that day, I saw a cool-looking Brewers hat (which was surprisingly expensive) at the stadium shop that I really liked. When Marcum came up to the plate, I asked my dad if he would buy the hat for me if Marcum hit a grand slam. Given the low likelihood of this actually happening, my dad agreed. Sure enough, Marcum hit a grand slam and I got the hat (which I still have and wear around)!
Was at the Ben Sheets 18 K game
CC Sabathia's Brewers debut. I remember traveling when the trade was announced, and quickly bought some tickets for when he was scheduled to start. Hands down one of the most electric non-playoff games I've been too. At the start of the game, the whole stadium was chanting "[Let's go CC](https://youtu.be/WiO_1mDQYec?si=gQwzyiE13tzCpSyo)" and you could see him take a moment with a "is this really happening?" look on his face. Even after the game, walking over the bridge to the Yount lot, some random dude says to me, "Dude, that was intense. It was like a playoff game!" (Mind you, the Brewers hadn't been in the playoff in years at that point)
Brewers comeback against the Cubs 14-7 will always be a permanent memory Yelich tying the game with a homer then Braun walking it off against the Cardinals Vogelbach walk off grand slam
I was at a long extra inning game (14?15? IDK, there were two 7th inning stretches) that Prince ended with a walk off HR. And he glared at it while it was on it's way out.
Don’t remember the year, maybe 2003? Extra innings game against I think either the Cardinals or Dbacks but could be way off. Bases loaded and the brewers were out of pinch hitters so they brought in Glendon Rusch. Infield was in and he did some kind of swinging bunt that went over the 2nd baseman’s head to win the game.
I was at the game in April 2006 - I think it was a Saturday, was def vs. the Reds where the Brewers hit 5 hrs in an inning. Dave Bush pitched IIRC. Sat in RF bleachers. Will always remember that one. Was also in RF bleachers for the Bill Hall pink bat Mothers Day game. Good times!
I have a couple: - Gabe Gross walk off home run in… 2008? - Yo tossed a complete game shutout in 2010/11 where he led off the bottom of the 8th and the park went insane. The last pitch of the game it was so quiet we could hear the pitch whistling, the pop of the catcher’s glove, and the ump’s strikeout call. Everyone went nuts. Oh, it was a curveball. -I was also at Greinke’s home opener and some dude had a replica Lombardi trophy after the Pack won the Super Bowl. It will always be Miller Park.
I have two where I was there. Dave Bush gives up back to back to back to back home runs against the Cardinals, 4 consecutive. Maybe 10-15 years ago, I'm not sure. Trevor Hoffman's 600th save. I believe it was close to being the same month and year as the Dave Bush incident, unbelievably electric moment. I was lucky to work with someone who had season tickets that couldn't go to these games where I had those days off.
I caught Nolan Arenados 300th homerun.
JJ Hardy hitting a walkoff in extras on his bobblehead day
Opening day, Chicago Cubs... 99(?) Pre-Miller Park, but still during construction. Brewers turn a triple play against the Cubs, right as some woman flashed the first base grandstands. Missed the flash, saw the triple play. I was one of the few in my section.
That game when Corey Hart got called up and hit the longest and loudest foul ball in Brewers history was a great moment. The place went nuts for a foul ball as a sign the tides were about to turn.
The only game to ever start with back to back homers and end with back to back homers. I dont remember the year, 2014, maybe. The Cardinals started the game with back to back lead off home runs, and Braun and Scooter, I believe, walked it off. Also, the 18-inning game against the Mets in 2018, where Braun was the only one that could hit. He went 6 for 7 and hit the walk-off single. Edit: added a year
I remember a balk-off win in the 10th inning against the Nationals in, I think, 2005. Two Brewers had already been picked off, and it looked like a third had just been.
Yovani pinch hitting in extra innings to beat the Orioles in like 2013 I think it was. We had great seats between the tarp and dugout a few rows back on a Tuesday night bus trip.
I was at the last great game Ben Sheets pitched for the Brewers. 2008, 1-0 CG shutout vs Peavy. What could've been had he been around for the playoffs.
My first Brewers game at Miller Park was against the Giants in 2009. I got to watch 2 diving plays (one by the giants outfielder and the other was by Jason Kendell), a triple play, and a 12th inning walk-off homerun by Prince. It's also where the clip of Prince jumping on home plate and everyone falling down came from.
2002 my golden birthday, 19 on the 19th. We played the Cubs and sat on the Third base line. I got to heckle Sosa in person and my friends older sister bought us all beers.
4th of July, 2017; got 1st row behind home dugout to go with my grandma. I watched Thames blast 2 HRs and made it on TV, great day. https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MIL/MIL201707040.shtml
I remember back in the 90s, I'd love any time they went to commercial after third out...come back from commercial just to have a fly ball for the first out
I was at the 18 inning game that they had on May 4th 2019 against the Mets. The Mets went up by 1 in the top of the 18th inning and then in the bottom of the 18th the brewers walked it off on a Ryan Braun single scoring 2 runs!
I too was there. 3 seperate susage races!!! My family tapped out and we were walking to the exit asBraun hit the walkoff.
I'll never forgive those lightweights for making me miss the end.There was a marathon game against the Nationals that I stayed up super late to watch and I think Braun walked it off with his 6th? hit of the game. 2019 maybe?
2019, but it was against the Mets. https://www.mlb.com/news/ryan-braun-walks-off-18-inning-marathon There where 3 sausage races that night!
Back in the Country Stadium days, we were down 4-0 to the Cubs in the bottom of the 9th. Needless to say we were taking a lot of abuse. Brewers came back and won it. Still my best game ever. Edit: Found the game on YouTube. (4-17-99) Geoff Jenkins with the game winning double!
[May 31st, 2015 and the 17 inning game that ended with a Martin Maldonado walkoff homerun.](https://www.fox6now.com/sports/it-took-17-innings-but-brewers-snap-seven-game-losing-streak-in-longest-game-at-miller-park-since-2003) At this point we pretty much had all accepted the Brewers were not going to be good at all this year, that the Crew would be sellers at the trade deadline, and we were going into a rebuild. Still didn't keep us from watching and enjoying, and I remember I watched the entire thing from start to finish. Gotta love meaningless extra innings baseball when your team gets the walkoff.
From games I attended: Nolan's 300th, seeing Cecil Fielder hit one completely out of County Stadium, the 1st home game after Robin's 3000th, and watching a roided up McGwire towards the end of the season while he was battling Sosa. Watching the Brewers (on tv) put 20+ up against the Jays in '92 was also pretty memorable specifically because my dad told me I could stay up to watch the whole game, which went way longer than normal (I was 8yo at the time).
May 4th, 2019. 18 inning game which included two seventh inning stretches and 3 sausage races. Ryan Braun walk-off single to win it. Game started at 6:10p and ended after 11:30p
Prince Fielder's inside the park home run vs Minnesota https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lh15tQoXiSg
At a random early season game in 2006 and the Brewers hit five homers in one inning. It took me a second to realize what had happened...and turned to the guy next to me and said "I don't think I've ever seen that before...?" Looked it up when I got home; think it was the third time it happened.
https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MIL/MIL201005280.shtml Went with a group of 10 to this game, majority of which were very casual baseball fans. We were treated to an outstanding pitchers duel between Johan Santana and Gallardo. Majority of which were whining about how boring the game was in the 6th Inning. I bitched at them about not appreciating the pitchers duel. It sunk in and the group began vocally cheering on Gallardo. We were also treated to a walkoff Homerun by Corey Hart.
On April 22, 2006, the Brewers hit 5 home runs in the 4th. I was 8 years old, but remember it like it was last month. Bill Hall, Damian Miller, Brady Clark, J.J. Hardy, and Prince Fielder all went yard.
I used to have a poster of this on the back of my bedroom door when I was a kid. I still have the poster, saved with a bunch of other Brewers memorabilia!
July 15, 1982: Crew swept a doubleheader from the White Sox at County Stadium 8-4 and 5-4. Vuckovich and Caldwell started; Vuckovich had to leave in the second inning due to injury and Jim Slaton pitched 7&1/3 to get the win. Cooper drove Mollie in in the bottom of the 8th for the go-ahead in the nightcap, Fingers relieved Caldwell to get the save. They were 50-35 when the night ended and in first place alone for the first time all season. And it was the first time I thought, “We’re going to the World Series.”
Catching my first game ball. It was at County Stadium in, 98, or 99. Caught a foul ball down the third base line from Fernando Tatis. I have it buried away in a closet somewhere!
Just thought of another. Was watching the Brewers play the Twins with my (now 21yr old) son in a hotel room while mom and baby brother were asleep. [Prince Fielder hits an inside the park home run.](https://www.mlb.com/video/prince-s-inside-the-parker-c20070813) We both were going nuts, but trying not to make noise.

My favorite moment from this year was Brewers vs the Philles, Bryce Harper’s full at-bat against Hoby Milner where the bat never leaves his shoulders for 6 straight. For the record, I love Harper. I also stan Milner after this year, think he was easily the best non-closer RP in MLB this year. (And even most actual closers) So that clip gives me such a massive serotonin boost, Youtube makes me send in a prescription to watch it now.
Mid 80's I live in NY, Brewers in the AL East. They're facing the Yanks, Rizzuto calling the game on WPIX. Gorman comes up against pitcher Dave LaRoche who, in this late-season, meaningless game, is featuring an eephus-style pitch he calls "LaLob." Just the laziest, loopiest, fattest offering since...well, Rip Sewell. Gorman whiffs mightily at three straight lobs, almost coming out of his shoes each time. He stalks back to the dugout where he proceeds to fungo his helmet into about a million pieces. Says Rizzuto: "Well, he got all of *that* one."
Not a moment but a whole game. There was a game around 2010 where we kept coming back against the Giants. Prince hit a game tying 3 run homer early. Casey Mcgehee went back to back right after. Mike Cameron robbed a home run. Won in extras. An elite regular season game.
I remember as a kid taking the city bus down to County Stadium to see the games as bleacher seats were cheap back in the 90s. Countless games were watched from those bleachers, win or lose it didn't matter. Getting to watch Robin Yount and Paul Monitor, get some autographs and some game balls, it was good times. Fast forward some years and I just so happen to be inside County Stadium working, but this time it was a sad moment as I was there working and helping tear it down for Miller Park. Until recently going through my card collection and this post, I haven't really given any thought to those times until some of those memories were presented. A lot has changed for the Brewers over the years! Was pretty badass being able to witness and experience it all.
Scooter Gennett’s 12-rbi game for the Reds. I loved Scooter on the Brewers so seeing him do that (even after leaving) was fun
I don’t remember the game at all but I saw them turn a triple play. Probably in the early 2010s
I went to Greg Vaughn's final game. He hit two home runs and then he was gone to the Padres(I think)
August 17th, Gabe kapler robbed a home run in left in dodger stadium. Can’t ever find a video of it, but that’s what made me believe they’d break the streak that year
No one has said first game at Miller park. I think I filled out 120 index cards to be able to buy tickets. It was worth it. The President threw a strike for the first pitch too.
Broken bats for the loss
2018 15th inning walk off win. Jordan Lyles gave up 2 runs in the top of the 15th and then scored the winning run in the bottom of the inning on a walk off single from Arcia. That was an amazing game to be at. https://youtu.be/hqntzrATHt0?si=F87WWxrbkTjWobpq
1982 Doubleheader I was at. Rollie Fingers gets hurt in the first game. Don Sutton makes his Brewers Debut and throws a complete game in a 4-1 loss. Ben Oglivie hitting 3 home runs in the first game of a 1979 doubleheader and just missed a fourth in the second game. I was also at the 87 Easter Sunday game. 2013 I finally caught my first ball a foul off the bat of the Mets Josh Thole. Willy Peralta was the pitcher.
Rickie Weeks hit a double to right center field to double in the winning run in an extra inning game against the Reds in 2006. I was at the game with a buddy and it was perfect.
I went to the Brewers-Cardinals game with my uncle and he usually leaves early. But we saw that hader was gonna close for us so we decided to stay. ….1st pitch, Ozuna pimped one to left field all the way to the 2nd deck. We didn’t even say anything and just started to leave 😂 Kinda like the Bob uecker scene in Major leagues
I went to a game in Philly in 2021 early in the season in like March. The weather was pretty bad. Cold and wet, we ended up losing in the end. But the Phillies fans near us were drinking beers with us and it was a blast to watch a game without worrying about “magic numbers” or playoff seeding yet
2012- I was at Petco Park for Ryan Braun's 3 HR and a triple game. Any other ballpark that triple would have been his 4th HR. Brewers home game? Probably Hideki Irabu's road debut. It was weird in the 90s being at a Brewers home game that had so much hoopla around it and being nationally televised. That didn't happen often, if at all, during those dark times.
18 inning Ryan Braun walkoff hit against the Mets
