"It was a sleepy Sunday on Sept. 28, the final day of MLB's regular season, and the Brewers had already secured the best record in baseball. The crowd began to roar in anticipation as Milwaukee's newest 7-footer headed toward the mound. Turner hopped over the freshly painted first-base foul line and raised his hand to acknowledge the crowd, pumping his fist as it continued to cheer."
"Despite making several trips to the city during his decade playing for the Indiana Pacers, Turner had never seen much of Milwaukee, keeping mostly to his hotel room during road trips. But ever since he signed a four-year, $107 million contract with the Milwaukee Bucks in July, Turner has made a point to get out and see the city. A few weeks after throwing out the first pitch, Turner joined a large group of Bucks players"
Myles Turner signed a four-year, $107 million contract with the Milwaukee Bucks in July and has been actively exploring Milwaukee since the move. He threw out the first pitch at a Sept. 28 Brewers game while wearing a custom No. 3 jersey and received a warm, cheering welcome. Turner has attended postseason baseball, joined Bucks players at Game 5 of the NLDS, visited Lambeau Field despite being a devout Dallas Cowboys fan, picked apples at Apple Holler, and spent time downtown along Lake Michigan. Turner previously spent most road trips in his hotel while with the Indiana Pacers.
