Background
The Beloit Brewers were the Class A Midwest League farm club of the Milwaukee Brewers from 1982 through 1994. The franchise still operates today in Beloit. The club is currently known as the Beloit Sky Carp after two subsequent re-brandings.
Since its founding in 1982, the Beloit Professional Baseball Association has operated the local nine as a community-owned non-profit organization.
Key ballplayers to come up through Beloit during the Brewers years included future Major League All-Stars B.J. Surhoff (Beloit ’85) and Greg Vaughn (Beloit ’87) and 1992 American League Rookie-of-the-Year Pat Listach (’88).
