The Fans Speak Out

On September 28, 2000, I attended the last baseball game at Milwaukee County Stadium. I was in total awe that night, just seeing all the former, legendary stars who were there.

I am trying to compile a list of all the former players who were honored that night. Could you please help me out on this?

Scott Rundhaugen Westby, Wis.

Former players who participated in the final game festivities at County Stadium included the following:

Braves--Henry Aaron, Bob Buhl, Lew Burdette, Del Crandall, Johnny Logan, Andy Pafko, Red Schoendienst, Warren Spahn and Frank Torte.

Brewers--Jerry Augustine, Johnny Briggs, Mike Caldwell, Bill Castro, Cecil Cooper, Rob Deer, Rollie Fingers, Jim Gantner, Moose Haas, Larry Hisle, Lew Krausse, Sixto Lezcano, Paul Molitor, Don Money, Charlie Moore, Juan Nieves, Ben Oglivie, Darrell Porter, Ken Sanders, Jim Slaton, Dale Sveum, Ron Theobold, Gorman Thomas, Tom Trebelhorn, Danny Walton and Robin Yount.
