Unveiled in 2014 the Milwaukee Brewers "Wall of Honor" at Miller Park commemorates Milwaukee Brewers players coaches and executives who meet a set criteria based on service to the club and/or career accomplishments.
The Wall of Honor is a permanent exhibit on an exterior Miller Park wall adjacent to the Hot Corner entrance. Honorees are recognized with a bronze plaque affixed to the wall with their image and a brief synopsis of their Milwaukee baseball career etched onto the marker. The plaques are designed by Matthews International designers of the plaques for the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
"The Wall of Honor is designed to honor the many individuals who either spent a significant portion of their career with the Brewers or have a significant legacy with the organization through various achievements" said Brewers Chief Operating Officer Rick Schlesinger. "It's designed as a complement to our Miller Park Walk of Fame as well as our statues."
Individuals who meet any of the following criteria during their time with the Milwaukee Brewers organization will be inducted into the Wall of Honor:
- 2000 or more plate appearances
- 1000 or more innings pitched
- 250 appearances as a pitcher
- Winner of a major award (MVP Cy Young Rookie of the Year or Fireman of the Year)
- Manager of a pennant-winning team
- Individuals memorialized with statues on the Miller Park Plaza
- Members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame who played for or managed the Brewers
Currently there are 58 persons who meet the above criteria. This group of 58 were recognized on the Brewers Wall of Honor during the 2014 season with an induction ceremony at Miller Park.
Presented here is Robin Yount's actual Milwaukee Brewers Wall of Honor Plaque that he was given at that ceremony. Yount has signed on the front in perfect 9/10 looking silver felt tip pen. Plaque has raised image at the top with a list of all his accomplishments below. Heavy plaque measures 14" wide by 24" tall.
LOA from Robin Yount.
