The Milwaukee Brewers announced Tuesday that more than 60 players, alumni, coaches, front office members and broadcaste­rs are scheduled to participat­e in “Brewers On Deck,” the team’s annual fanfest on Jan. 29 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Wisconsin Center.

Among the players scheduled to attend are Ryan Braun, Jonathan Villar, Orlando Arcia, Keon Broxton, Junior Guerra, Scooter Gennett and Hernan Perez. Newcomers including Travis Shaw, Eric Thames and Jett Bandy also will be on hand, as well as minorleagu­e prospects Lewis Brinson, Josh Hader, Brett Phillips and Jorge Lopez.

Advance tickets are $15 for adults and $9 for children 14 and under. Tickets on the day of the event are $20 for adults and $15 for children 14 and under. On the day of the event, cash is the only accepted form of payment for admittance. Tickets may be purchased at the Miller Park box office, by calling the Brewers ticket office at (414) 902-4000, or online at brewers.com/ondeck through noon Jan. 27.

Once again, food donations will be accepted for The Hunger Task Force. Donations can be dropped off at two main entrances to the Wisconsin Center, located at N. 4th St. and W. Wisconsin Ave. and 4th St. and W. Wells St.

Players and select staff/alumni will each sign up to 250 autographs, ranging from free of charge to $25 (proceeds go to Brewers Community Foundation). All autographs will be first come, first served and limited to the first 250 in line per player/staff. Cash is the only form of payment accepted for autographs.
