Recapping the 2026 World Series

The Milwaukee Brewers won their first World Series championship in franchise history, defeating the Tampa Bay Rays in five games with an 11-2 postseason record. In Game 1 at American Family Field, the Brewers scored early on a Jackson Chourio single and Christian Yelich triple, then held on for a 3-2 victory after a controversial replay review overturned a potential double play in the ninth inning. William Contreras went 2-for-3 with an RBI and threw out two base stealers, while Jacob Misiorowski pitched five innings of one-run ball. The championship marked Milwaukee's first title since the Braves won in 1957.
