Brewers Celebrate 50th Anniversary of Yount’s Debut

Before this past Sunday’s game, the Brewers honored Hall of Famer Robin Yount to recognize the 50th anniversary of the two-time MVP’s major league debut. Yount spent his entire career with the Brewers and is regarded as the best player in franchise history.

Yount received a standing ovation before throwing out the first pitch.

During a pregame media session with former Brewers owner and MLB Commissioner Bud Selig, Yount said that he’s “the luckiest guy in the world, to have been drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers.”

“I love Milwaukee,” Yount said. “I love Wisconsin. It’s just worked out great for me.”
