County Stadium
Milwaukee Brewers
County Stadium served Milwaukee baseball for 47 seasons — first as home of the Braves (1953–1965), who won the 1957 World Series here, and then the Brewers (1970–2000). Hank Aaron began his career here with the Braves, and the stadium was demolished after American Family Field (Miller Park) opened next door.
