Milwaukee Brewers' 2023 Official Regular Season Schedule
The Milwaukee Brewers are now less than two months away from Opening Day.
The Brewers will open the season in Chicago, playing the Cubs at Wrigley Field. They will then return to American Family Field for their home opener Mon., April 3 against the New York Mets, before playing host to the St. Louis Cardinals. The Brewers will then travel to Arizona, San Diego and Seattle for a ten-day road trip to play the Diamondbacks, Padres and Mariners.
For the first time ever, the Brewers will play a series against each of the other 29 Major League Baseball teams. All 30 teams will play a series against each other, for the first time in baseball history. The hope is that it will generate more fan interest, as star players from the opposite league will appear at the city's home ballpark every other year. Brewers fans will get a chance to see Los Angeles Angels stars Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout, when the Angels come to town in late April.
The schedule change will also provide help to teams that play in hypercompetitive divisions. It will not aid teams like the Cardinals, that might be playing in baseball's weakest division, the National League Central, in 2023.
The downside to the change is it means that rivals will play each other less. The Brewers and Chicago Cubs used to play a minimum of 18 regular season games against each other. This season, they'll play each other 13 times, with their last series coming the final weekend of the regular season.
The Brewers are coming off an 86-76 season in which they failed to reach the postseason for the first time since 2017. They hope to find their way back in the playoffs in 2023.
Here's a look at the Brewers' entire schedule for the 2023 season:
