Richfield Resident's Uniform Design a Finalist for Milwaukee Brewers Contest

Richfield resident Ben Peters is one of three Milwaukee Brewers fans announced as finalists in the team's Design a YOUniform Contest.

According to Fox Sports-Wisconsin, nearly 700 entries were submitted and a panel of judges narrowed the designs down to three finalists. In addition to Peters, the designs of Ron Verrecchio of Catonsville, MD and Nicholas Fout of Madison, WI were also chosen as finalists.

Fans will choose the winning design, which will be worn during two exhibition games in the upcoming season. The winner will receive airfare for two to Phoenix, $1,500 for hotel, transportation and other expenses and two tickets to Milwaukee's spring training game on March 22 against the Cubs, according to Fox. The uniform will be worn during that Cubs game and on March 30 when the Brewers take on the Chicago White Sox.

The winner will be revealed on Jan. 27 at the "Brewers On Deck" fan fest. To see Peters' design and vote for your favorite, go to milwaukee.brewers.mlb.com. Voting goes through Jan. 22.
