The Milwaukee Brewers have announced a player development contract with Triple-A San Antonio of the Pacific Coast League. The two-year contract will run through the 2020 season. The announcement was made by Brewers General Manager David Stearns. 
"We are thrilled to continue our relationship with the Elmore Sports Group and relocate our Triple-A team to San Antonio," said Stearns. "San Antonio provides one of the premier Minor League markets in the country and offers our players a quality player development environment. We look forward to many future Brewers making their final Minor League stop at Wolff Stadium."
The Missions join the Pacific Coast League after previously playing in the Double-A Texas League. The team plays their home games at Nelson W. Wolff Municipal Stadium. 
"We are very excited to be working with the Milwaukee Brewers," said Missions President Burl Yarbrough. "With our promotion to the Triple-A Pacific Coast League, they will be terrific partners as we begin a new era of Missions baseball in 2019. The Brewers were in town last week to see our facility and discuss our renovation plans for the clubhouse and batting cages. After meeting with them and seeing their excitement for San Antonio, we feel the Brewers were the best fit for us. The Brewers have one of the top farm systems in baseball and we look forward to helping them put many more players into Major League Baseball."
This marks the second time that the Brewers have had a player development contract with the franchise. San Antonio served as the Brewers Double-A affiliate in 1972.
