MILWAUKEE, WI – Leadership from Northwoods League baseball teams around Wisconsin signed an open letter urging elected officials to support a solution to save Major League Baseball in Wisconsin. Team management from the nine Wisconsin-based Northwoods League teams are offering their support to the Home Crew Coalition’s mission and urging action.
“Northwoods League baseball is an integral part of Wisconsin summers, and we’re proud to add the names of these leaders to our efforts to support a bipartisan solution to funding American Family Field,” said Omar Shaikh, Chairman of the Home Crew Coalition. “Those supporting our coalition are leaders in communities from every corner of Wisconsin. The Home Crew Coalition is proud of our continued work to save Major League Baseball and its massive economic impact here in Wisconsin.”
The Home Crew Coalition is a group of community and business leaders from across the state who support a solution to keep Major League Baseball in Wisconsin for the next generation. The organization’s launch followed news of the need for adequate resources to ensure American Family Field can continue to serve as home to the Milwaukee Brewers.
