How the Milwaukee Brewers history timeline works

The Brewers deck starts before the team was even called the Brewers, and every card has a short description under its title. You put the moments in order by year. One card is on the timeline at the start, year visible. For each new card, pick a gap before, between or after the others. Get it right and the year appears. Get it wrong and the card goes to its real place, and one of three lives is gone.

Milwaukee's history is split between a homegrown core that peaked early and a modern stretch of steady contention. One franchise icon's long career touches several cards, from his first season to his awards and honors, and those are easy to order wrong. The later cards come nearly every season, with division titles and wild card trips that look alike, so the description is the thing to read.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
