In an eagerly anticipated series finale, the Milwaukee Brewers are set to face the New York Mets this Sunday at American Family Field in Milwaukee. Despite recent flooding in the area affecting multiple access routes to the stadium, both teams have announced their commitment to proceed with the game as scheduled.

The Brewers issued a statement confirming the game will begin at 1:10 p.m. local time, urging fans to plan accordingly for potential travel disruptions due to the waterlogged conditions. While American Family Field itself remains unscathed by the floodwaters, the team cautioned that nearly half of the stadium’s parking facilities are currently unusable.

“Today’s game will be played as scheduled, with the 1:10 p.m. start time. American Family Field was not directly impacted by the flooding, but approximately half of the parking lots are currently inaccessible to traffic and some access roads are closed,” read an update shared on the Brewers’ social media channels.
