Brewers Game To Start Early Tuesday To Avoid NBA Finals Conflict
The Brewers-Royals game starts earlier on Tuesday to avoid conflict with Game 6 of the NBA finals between the Bucks and Suns.
MILWAUKEE, WI — The Milwaukee Brewers and Kansas City Royals game on Tuesday will start four hours earlier on account of the NBA Finals game the same day.
The first pitch will be at 3:10 p.m. instead of the originally scheduled 7:10 p.m. at American Family Field, located at 1 Brewers Way.
The time change was made to avoid conflict with Game 6 of the NBA Finals, which is scheduled for 8 p.m. at the Fiserv Forum, located at 1111 Vel R. Phillips Avenue, the Brewers said in a statement.
