The Milwaukee Brewers won the first World Series championship in franchise history on Oct. 28, 2026, defeating the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1 in Game 5 at Tropicana Field to take the series four games to one. Right-hander Jacob Misiorowski pitched 5 2/3 scoreless innings, and catcher William Contreras, named series MVP, anchored an offense that outscored Tampa Bay in four of the five games.
Milwaukee won Games 1 through 3 (3-2, 5-4, 10-1) before the Rays forced a fifth game with a 4-3, 12-inning win in Game 4. The 103-win Brewers, who had never previously reached a World Series, closed out the title on the road against a Rays team making its first Series appearance since 2008.
