Wisconsin asks the U S Supreme Court to end baseball antitrust immunity and force the Atlanta Braves back to Milwaukee. The appeal challenges a Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling that state law cannot regulate the sport, arguing the 1922 exemption was granted with the understanding state law would apply. If accepted, the case could influence 1967 expansion timing and Braves’ relocation fate.
