The Milwaukee Brewers clinched their first World Series championship in franchise history, defeating the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 5 to complete an 11-2 postseason run.
The victory ends a 57-year title drought for the Brewers, who entered the league as the Seattle Pilots in 1969 before relocating to Milwaukee in 1970. The team's complete team effort throughout the playoffs culminated in a decisive Game 5 win.
Staff writer Jack Baer reported the Brewers' dominant postseason performance, which saw them lose only two games across three series en route to the franchise's maiden championship.
