The game took place at Pepperdine University, and featured the Brewers players, plus Cleveland Browns Quarterback Baker Mayfield, actors Adam Sandler and Mira Sorvino, among others, and Bob Uecker in the broadcast booth.



Braun and Yelich were among the principal organizers for the sold-out event, along with Mike Attanasio, the son of owner Mark Attanasio.
