Brewers infielder and former Dock Spider makes return to Fond du Lac

The Fond du Lac Dock Spiders have announced that former Dock Spider and current Milwaukee Brewers infielder Caleb Durbin will make an appearance at their game Thursday, June 5, 2025, at Herr-Baker Field.

Durbin, a Dock Spider from 2020-21, made his Major League debut for the Brewers earlier this season on April 18th. He’s one of six former Fond du Lac Dock Spiders playing in the majors. Including Durbin, three of those players had their start this year in the major leagues.

During his return to Fond du Lac, Durbin will be available for fan meet-and-greet opportunities and will throw out the game’s ceremonial first pitch. He will be available to sign autographs and meet with fans from 5:30-6:15 p.m.

Dock Spiders General Manager Jim Misudek said “We’re extremely proud of Caleb and for the Dock Spiders to be a part of his baseball journey. “To have a current Major Leaguer attend a Northwoods League game is exceptionally rare, and our community is incredibly lucky to have such an opportunity!”

The Dock Spiders begin their ninth season of Northwoods League play this year with their season opener May 26th in Madison.
