The Milwaukee Brewers have clinched the best record in Major League Baseball for the second consecutive season, securing their place in the playoffs with home-field advantage throughout. On Thursday night, the Brewers dominated the Phillies, winning 5-1 thanks to a strong performance from their pitching staff and power hitters Jake Bauers, Cooper Pratt, and Jackson Chourio.
This victory marked Milwaukee's first-ever 100-win season. The Brewers' impressive season was further bolstered by the Tampa Bay Rays' loss (6-4) and the Los Angeles Dodgers' narrow defeat (4-2), giving the Brewers the edge needed to claim the top position in baseball. As a result, the Brewers have earned a first-round bye, allowing them to bypass the Wild Card Series and advance directly to the National League Division Series, which begins on October 3.
The Milwaukee Brewers will host the first three games of the NLDS at American Family Field, with additional games at the same venue should the team progress further in the playoffs.
