Say goodbye to Fox Sports Wisconsin and hello to Bally Sports Wisconsin. If you have been watching the Brewers the last week. You probably noticed some changes to the broadcast. Fox Sports Wisconsin will now be known as Bally Sports Wisconsin. The change comes just two years after Sinclair Broadcasting purchased the Fox regional channels from Disney and partnered with Bally Corporation. They completed the change with brand new branding, animations, music, and an interactive streaming app. Let’s take a closer look at the brand new Bally Sports Network. What is Bally Entertainment? Before being called Bally Entertainment, they used…

A baseball game is like a roller coaster of emotions from start to finish. Opening Day ended in walk-off fashion, Corbin Burnes pitched a gem, and the Brewers’ defense shined throughout the series. What was missing, though? The Brewers’ offense. Everyone had high hopes after the comeback victory on Opening Day, but the next two games the offense just fell…flat.  Each series is a new beginning, though. The Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs start a three-game series at Wrigley Field. Game One features lefty Brett Anderson for the Brewers and righty Trevor Williams for the Cubs. Tonight’s game is at…

The Opening Series Border Battle between the Brewers and Twins continues tonight at 6:10 P.M. central time.

His counterpart on the Twins side is right-handed pitcher José Berríos.  Corbin Burnes The 26-year-old has made great strides since his down year in 2019, where he finished the season with an 8.82 ERA. Burnes has had more experience than pitchers his age and continues to improve and dominate. What has been the key to his recent success? Re-working his pitch…

The Milwaukee Bucks are set to take on the Sacramento Kings on the fourth game of their Western Conference road trip. Milwaukee handily took the first match of the season series, 128-115, back in February. For all their ups and downs so far, the Bucks have been humming lately. They’re one of only three teams to be top ten in both ends of the floor. They’re 6th in offense (116.5 ORtg) and 8th in defense (110.4 DRtG) for a 4th-best +6.1 net rating. They pass the eye test quite cleanly, too. Players seem sold on their roles, and good things generally…

While this season’s MVP conversation has been dominated by names such as Joel Embiid, Nikola Jokic, James Harden, and LeBron James one name has been absent. Giannis Antetokounmpo, the 2x MVP and 1x DPOY has been mostly absent from MVP talks this year. The truth of the matter is, Giannis really deserves to be in the front of the MVP convo, and here’s why. Offense Giannis has been arguably as good on offense this year as he was in his last two MVP years. This year, Giannis has averaged 28.3 ppg on 55% from the field and 30% from deep…

Along with first base, the second base position has been a revolving door since Rickie Weeks held it down from 2005-2014. Ever since then, the starters have been Scooter Gennett, Jonathan Villar, and most recently, Keston Hiura. The uncertainties at first and third base created a domino effect to shuffle the infield around. To fill in those holes, Keston Hiura will be the primary first baseman while sharing time with Daniel Vogelbach. In addition to that, Travis Shaw and Orlando Arcia will share time at third base. As we know, the Brewers signed free-agent second baseman Kolten Wong to a…

Spring is here and baseball is finally back! Rejoice Brewers fans. With some of the off-season acquisitions the team made, every fan should be really excited. It also helps that the team is looking very strong so far in spring training games. Knock on wood. Let’s take a look on why this could be one of the best seasons of Milwaukee baseball. All of us here at Wisconsin Sports Heroics are…

Well folks, mark your calendars because April 1 is not only Opening Day at American Family Field, but it’s also Brandon Woodruff Day.  In the past, the Brewers have had the worst luck with choosing a consistent Opening Day starter. Woodruff is the first Brewers’ starter to pitch in consecutive openers since Yovani Gallardo started a franchise record with five-in-a-row. Last season Woodruff had the best WHIP, and highest K/9 in his career. The question is whether or not Manny Piña or Omar Narváez will be Woodruff’s battery mate. Narváez has a lot to prove after having a down year…

The Green Bay Packers tendered tight end Robert Tonyan and cornerback Chandon Sullivan on Tuesday. Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel first reported the news about Tonyan and Ian Rapoport tweeted the news about Sullivan. The #Packers just tendered RFA CB Chandon Sullivan, per the Katz Bros. — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 16, 2021 Tonyan’s tender is worth $3.384 million. If another team decides to make an offer and the Packers do not match it, Green Bay will be compensated with a second-round pick. It is unlikely that another team will be willing to give up a second-round…

Aaron Jones will be in Green Bay for four more years after his recent re-signing with the Packers (Click Here for contract details). He has earned every bit of his new contract. Aaron Jones has excelled in Coach Matt Lafleur’s offensive system, and will look to do more of the same this coming season.  Aaron Jones adds so much value to this offense. Green Bay had the number one offense in the NFL last season and will want to improve again this season. Let’s take a look at what Aaron Jones does to help this offense and how to take…
