The Milwaukee Brewers captured their first World Series title on October 28, 2026, defeating the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1 in the best-of-seven series. The clinching Game 5 took place at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida.
The Brewers' victory marks the franchise's first championship since its inception in 1969 as the Seattle Pilots before moving to Milwaukee in 1970. The series win came in front of a crowd that included many Brewers supporters, one of whom was photographed holding a celebratory sign during the ninth inning.
