MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The Milwaukee Brewers are stepping up to help during the COVID-19 pandemic and giving fans an opportunity to get involved.
The team has made a limited number of t-shirts with the beloved ball-in-glove logo but with a twist; the team separated the "m" and "b" to encourage and support social distancing. The logo is accompanied with the tagline "Play by the Rules. Keep your Distance."
The special t-shirts went on sale Monday, April 13 with net proceeds supporting the Brewers Community Foundation’s (BCF) efforts to raise money for local nonprofit organizations experiencing increased demands due to COVID-19.
We're #InThisTogetherMKE.
