Overview
- The National Weather Service recorded up to 12 inches of rain in Milwaukee, causing flash floods that submerged roads and triggered leaks through American Family Field’s retractable roof during Saturday’s game.
- Brewers president Rick Schlesinger said the structure suffered no interior damage and, after consulting with operations staff, opted to play Sunday’s scheduled finale.
- Flooded access roads and half of the stadium’s parking lots forced the team to offer account credits for unused tickets and prepaid parking passes to fans unable to attend.
- Milwaukee erased a five-run deficit to win 7-6 on Isaac Collins’s first-career walk-off homer, completing a three-game sweep of the Mets and extending their win streak to nine.
- Visible roof failures and the weekend’s logistical hurdles have intensified public scrutiny of the recently approved $500 million–$545 million public funding package for stadium renovations.
