Our young family was living in Milwaukee then, and I remember the series vividly. Somewhere in a shoebox I have photos of the Goodyear blimp making its way along the shore of Lake Michigan as it flew past our neighborhood on the way toward County Stadium.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure that Brewers logo was designed by a fan in a contest. Curiously, back then I thought it was kind of a cheesey (Wisconsin pun not intended) rip-off of the Montreal Expos logo (m-e-b, as in Montreal Expos baseball).<br /><br />Now, I am delighted whenever the Brewers wear the old-style pinstripe uniforms with this old cap.<br /><br />Thanks for dredging up some good memories.Dan Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14699321184039054628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230895.post-88928911785233269602009-09-23T16:15:03.476-04:002009-09-23T16:15:03.476-04:00Good question, Joey.

A bunch of teams moved from the American Association to the National League circa 1890.Left Fieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03096253129121716274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230895.post-56418619594470640712009-09-23T15:29:54.997-04:002009-09-23T15:29:54.997-04:00Great post.

I think the switch from AL to NL in '97 is cool part Brewers history as well. <br /><br />How many teams in baseball history have made the switch from one league to another?Joey Pantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03822602765976430677noreply@blogger.com
