Brandon Cruz Career
Cruz’s broadcasting journey started by doing every possible book report he was assigned on sports, athletes, or broadcasters. As he went into high school, the passion continued. He first became a writer for “The Amadon”, the newspaper for Amador Valley High School in Pleasanton, CA. Our mascot would be the Dons if you were wondering where “The Amadon” came from. The following year, he became the sports editor for the paper. In addition, he then brought his talents to Southern California and Long Beach State, where he landed his first big break.
His uncle, Gary Cruz, an Emmy-winning sports anchor, took a job at KCAL just up the road in Los Angeles. He gave him an opportunity to intern and learn from the best sportscaster he knew, as well as a great group of people. Additionally, he got to meet and spend a little time with Scully at Dodger Stadium during the 5 years he was at KCAL.
Cruz was hired as the Sports Director at KVEW-KAPP in the Tri-Cities, WA after he completed college. Later he did sports in Pocatello, ID, Colorado Springs, CO, and Denver, CO before coming to Milwaukee in 2006. In the Brew City, he has been fortunate to cover the Packers, including Brett Favre’s final year with the green and gold, Brewer’s return to the playoffs for the first time since 1982, as well as their NLCS, runs in 2011 and 2018.
Covering basketball in this city has been amazing, especially after the Bucks drafted Giannis Antetokounmpo as he covered their playoff runs, including their 2019 Eastern Conference Finals appearance.

In 2009, he joined FOX6 as a general assignment reporter. The transition was much more enjoyable than he could have imagined. He has seen the fantastic changes in Wisconsin up close. From Packer’s Super Bowl run in 2011 to the protests over Act 10 days later and the subsequent recall races to the wild weather we’ve endured, he told the stories that matter to you.
It didn’t take long before his career changed again, this time in June of 2014 when he moved from the news back into sports. Again, he is telling stories of the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Brewers, Milwaukee Bucks, Marquette, and Wisconsin athletics, among others. During the football season, he is also bringing you the FOX6 High School Blitz. Along with giving you sports news of the day, he is sharing unique stories that take you “Beyond the Game”.
Most importantly, Milwaukee is where he met his beautiful wife. Because of her, he has been able to make Milwaukee my home where we are raising our wonderful son.
