Milwaukee, Wisconsin is home to a variety of sports teams and events. ==Professional== Milwaukee has a rich history of involvement in professional and sports, going back to the 19th century. Currently, its major sports teams include: Throughout the sports world, Milwaukee is perhaps best known for its tradition of tailgating before Brewers baseball games. The Brewers made their first post-season appearance in 1981 and won the American League pennant in 1982. In 1998, they became the first Major League team in modern history to switch leagues, doing so to accommodate the expansion franchises of the Arizona Diamondbacks and Tampa Bay Devil Rays. They also have the distinction of being the only team to have played in four of the six current Major League divisions. The Bucks won the 1971 NBA Championship, a mere three years after joining the league. They made it back to the Finals in 1974, but soon developed a reputation as "next year's champions," winning at least one playoff series for the next 15 years, but having yet to return to the Finals. The Wave are the longest continuously-running professional soccer operation in North America. They have also been one of the most successful, having captured five league championships in the past nine years. An interesting note; the Milwaukee Admirals ice hockey club is a feeder team for the Nashville Predators, and Nashville's minor league baseball team, the Nashville Sounds, was the farm team for the Milwaukee Brewers from 2005 to 2014. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sports in Milwaukee」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
