In a general season, Teddy Werner’s task is to interact and entertain enthusiasts at Milwaukee Brewers’ house games. Now its is Array … essentially, the players.

This is how the Brewers’ vice president of Brand Experience approaches 2020, with the opening of Friday’s house in Miller Park opposite the Cardinals.

“Our audience now in terms of what we do regarding the game presentation, it’s the players,” Werner said. “Several months ago, we had conversations with David Stearns and Craig Counsell and others about the aspect of baseball operations to locate tactics to create the most general environment possible.”

The artificial noise of the crowd is the largest that has manifested itself.

Werner said a Brewers worker who has held various positions in the team room will have for all 30 games in the house, opting for the sound effect of the crowd to use in each situation. Major League Baseball provided all groups with a pickup containing the treasure of sounds, collected as a component of the Sony MLB video game series The Show.

“The user knows the speed quite well and admits that he will have to be careful at every moment of the game,” Werner said. “You can’t be distracted or respond to a message on your phone, you want to focus on the game and accurately anticipate what’s going to happen. We’ll have two or 3 more clips that we can build on to generate that anticipation. Matrix “

The files have a situational meaning, Werner said, ranging from a “fundamental shot at the beginning of the game to a fundamental shot that marks a race in the middle of the game to the end of the game.”

“Before we heard the synthetic noise of the crowd, the players made it clear that it was embarrassing and uncomfortable, even when education was done in a quiet ballpark,” Werner said. “The first day of the acquisition of this pill was as if a transfer had been reversed. They felt much more comfortable.”

Fans will see many announcements around the stadium, adding seating segments as well as on other ball courts. This can come with visual virtual signage only in diffusion, as well as LED tape panels and rotating signaling along baselines. Organist Dean Rosko will also be available to play.

“Let’s push the barriers a little bit more with the music, ” said Werner. “The players asked us to play music in the game. In a general Environment Array … between rounds, we play with the sponsors and receive music that encourages enthusiasts to get up and dance.”

Without this element, players will have a greater contribution to the game’s soundtrack. However, it did not dissist the concept of fundamental elements of the board such as the “Crazy Cap Shuffle”.

Werner also oversees promotional projects such as the Johnsonville Famous Racing Sausages festival every afternoon, an occasion that will take place around Milwaukee this season.

A promotion also returns, featuring a truck gift when a Brewers player hits a race of the house in a Toyota vehicle fixed beyond the box wall in the right center.

The gift created for a fan provides to win the new wheels; This year, enthusiasts can take part in a raffle in the MLB Ballpark app or Brewers.com to be part of the Toyota Highlander Home Run.

Fans will have to be 18 and, of course, they don’t want to be there to win.
