Two of MLB’s smallest spenders will meet in the World Series for first time since 1991

Milwaukee is abuzz with excitement following the Brewers' triumphant World Series victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers, marking their first championship in 44 years. The NBA's Milwaukee Bucks have responded to this historic moment by adjusting their home opener schedule. Instead of the usual 7 p.m. Central time kickoff on October 23, the Bucks have shifted their opening game to 3 p.m. on the same day, coinciding with Game 1 of the World Series.

The Bucks expressed their pride and congratulated the Brewers on their remarkable achievement, stating they look forward to cheering them on throughout their World Series run. The NBA organization thanked the NBA for facilitating this schedule adjustment. Although the exact start times for the Brewers' World Series game have not been officially announced by MLB, it is expected to be broadcasted nationally in prime time.

This strategic move by the Bucks may provide an opportunity for fans to attend both the Bucks' home opener and the World Series game, as the Brewers will be hosting crucial games against the Cleveland Guardians or Tampa Bay Rays. The Bucks' next home game against the Bulls is scheduled for seven days after the home opener, followed by a match against the 76ers in Philadelphia. The Brewers will face their first World Series opponent soon thereafter.
