Originally called “Athletic Park,” Borchert Field was the longest lasting professional ballpark in Milwaukee. Built in 1888, the field stood at Burleigh and 8th Streets. The park was home to the major league Milwaukee Brewers (1891), Negro League Milwaukee Bears (1923), All-American Girls Professional Baseball League Milwaukee Chicks (1944), and the minor league American Association Milwaukee Brewers (1902-1952). Borchert Field also served as home field for the National Football League’s Milwaukee Badgers (1922-1926) and Green Bay Packers (for one game in 1933). The stadium was demolished in 1953 as construction of County Stadium was finalized. After a few years as a playground, the space was eventually cleared for the construction of I-43.
