The '''American Family Field Walk of Fame''' is an exhibit located at [[American Family Field]] in [[Milwaukee|Milwaukee, Wisconsin]], that commemorates [[baseball]] players, [[coach (baseball)|coaches]], executives, and [[Sports commentator|broadcasters]] who have made significant contributions to [[Major League Baseball]] (MLB) in Milwaukee. Established by the [[Milwaukee Brewers]] in 2001 with the opening of the stadium, it encompasses the entire history of the Brewers since 1970 and that of the [[Milwaukee Braves]], who played in the city from 1953 to 1965. Twenty-three individuals have been inducted as of 2024.<ref name=WOF>{{cite web|url=https://www.mlb.com/brewers/ballpark/attractions/walk-of-fame|title=Walk of Fame|website=Milwaukee Brewers|publisher=Major League Baseball|access-date=January 24, 2024}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last=McCalvy|first=Adam|title=Braun to Be Honored With Induction Into Brewers' Walk of Fame|url=https://www.mlb.com/brewers/news/ryan-braun-to-be-inducted-into-brewers-walk-of-fame|website=Milwaukee Brewers|publisher=Major League Baseball|date=January 23, 2024|access-date=January 24, 2024}}</ref>
