The Milwaukee Brewers are reaching into their wallet in the wake of a disappointing season and Ryan Braun's suspension.
Every fan that shows up with a ticket to any of the team's 12 home games in August will receive a $10 voucher that will be good for food, beverages, tickets or merchandise.
"We were finalizing something like this to give back to our loyal fans just as news of Ryan's suspension hit," said the team's COO, Rick Schlesinger. "Mark [Attanasio] decided he wanted to make a dramatic impact that would cost more money."
Despite a 43-61 record, the Brewers have drawn well this season, bringing in an average of more than 31,000 fans per game. Based on those calculations, the vouchers will cost the team more than $3.6 million if they are all used.
