The Milwaukee Brewers have played their home games in Miller Park since it opened in 2001, but the stadium's name will change after the 2020 season thanks to a naming rights deal with American Family Insurance.
An official statement from MillerCoors confirmed the name change Tuesday morning.
The statement reads:
MillerCoors purchased the naming rights to the stadium before it opened in 1996. The $40 million deal lasts through 2020. A company spokesperson says, despite the name change, Miller products will remain a staple at the ball park for years to come.
The Brewers are holding a press conference at 2 p.m. Tuesday. They are expected to release more details on the naming rights change.
NewsChannel 7 plans to livestream the press conference on Facebook.
