In 2012 the MBL enters its tenth season as an independent league after Milwaukee County ceased running adult baseball leagues. In 2011, the MBL again improved the stability and competitiveness of the league. In 2011, our Open divisions, the American and National, added more players with varsity high school and college experience which culminated in a Championship between two teams with substantial talent. The Veterans division crowned its second champ in an many years and showed that players in their late 20s, 30s and 40s can still ball. In general the league is healthy with a good group of volunteers managing it and is in the black financially.

MBL Championship Game: Brown Deer Supreme Builders 12 - Milwaukee Beavers 9
The 2011 MBL Championship provided a well fought, exciting game between the Beavers and Builders. The builder’s opted to start their ace, Brendon Dorn (3.1 IP), who pitched a complete game victory in the semifinals the night before. The Beavers seized the opportunity and came out of the gates in the first inning scoring five runs created on four consecutive hits by Rob Tschimperle, Justin Barkhrst, Greg Ketz, and Mike Schroeder. The Builders were able to cut the lead to four with a Matt Cook rbi single in the bottom of the inning. The Beaver’s Schroeder came up big again with a two rbi single in the second and fourth inning to give Brown Deer a blow to the chest with the score 9-1 after the top of the fourth. However, Supremes Eric Belter hit a two run homerun, his second in as many days, to bring the score 9-3. After a scoreless top of the fifth, the Beavers were able to get a quick two outs from the first three Builder batters. At that very moment is when Brown Deer’s bats ignited in a huge way. They managed eight hits and drew two walks before the final out of the inning occurred. That cumulated to a nine run, two out rally… an accomplishment that few have ever witnessed. It would put them in the lead 12-9 which ultimately became final score. After the game it was announced that Eric Belter was named the 2011 MBL playoff MVP.
