The first occupants of the Lloyd Street Grounds were the
Milwaukee Brewers of the
Western League, which opened the park in 1895 after leaving
Athletic Park, the eventual Borchert Field. The Western League became the
American League in 1900, but was still officially a minor league. In 1901 the American League became a
major league, retaining Milwaukee as one of its charter members.
The first major league game played at Lloyd Street was on
May 3, 1901 and the last on
September 12, 1901. For 1902, the Brewers announced they were moving to
St. Louis to become the
St. Louis Browns, where they remained until 1954, when the Browns moved to
Baltimore to become the
Baltimore Orioles.
