Look for a massive gas pump if you go to Miller Park when the Brewers host the Pirates tomorrow night.

The Milwaukee Brewers will unveil a massive Citgo sign in the shape of a gas pump just outside the right-centerfield fence, according to the Sports Business Daily. The new sign will light up each time the Brewers hit a home run.

According to the SBD, the "22-foot-high pump contains an LED board where the price of gas would appear, but it instead will display the distance of every homer."

The new sign is part of a continued sponsorship agreement between the Brewers and Citgo since last summer. During the sponsorship agreement Citgo will annually donate 100 game tickets and 100 T-shirts to a charity for a “Brewers Buddies Day.”

Maury Brown is the founder and president of the Business of Sports Network, which includes The Biz of Baseball, The Biz of Football and The Biz of Basketball (The Biz of Hockey will be launching shortly). He is also a contributor to Baseball Prospectus.
