Wisconsin Timber Rattlers
Our team will create the best entertainment experience in Wisconsin so that every guest walks away with a smile and a desire to return. The Wisconsin Timber Rattlers are part of a long tradition of Appleton Professional Baseball, which started in 1891. We are the continuation of a franchise that began as the Fox Cities Foxes in 1958 at Goodland Field. We became the Timber Rattlers in 1995 when we moved into Fox Cities Stadium and have been the Midwest League affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers since 2009.
