Brewers get into Star Wars spirit with fourth Star Wars theme night, 'Braun Solo' bobblehead

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Ryan Braun flies through the air for a catch in 2017. In 2018, he'll be profiled as "Braun Solo" for a Brewers Star Wars theme night. It's the fourth year the Brewers have done a Star Wars night.

Count the Milwaukee Brewers among those eager for the debut of Star Wars: The Last Jedi Thursday.

The Brewers will offer "Star Wars Night" for a fourth consecutive year May 4 when the Brewers host Pittsburgh, and fans purchasing a special Star Wars Night ticket package will receive a limited-edition "Braun Solo" bobblehead, with packages starting at $20.

A limited number of ticket packages will go on sale starting at 10 a.m. Friday. Purchases can be made at Brewers.com/themenights.

Last May 13 against the Mets, the Brewers offered a "Jedi Keon" bobblehead, a reference to outfielder Keon Broxton. In 2016, a "Stormin' Gorman Stormtrooper" was offered, a reference to Brewers great Gorman Thomas. In 2015, it was "Jedi Luc," after catcher Jonathan Lucroy.

A number of members from the Star Wars universe will be on hand, with special appearances throughout the game.
