Brewers bullpen's historic game gets social media's attention

The Milwaukee Brewers' bullpen is doing historic things in the playoffs.

In the most recent National League playoffs, the Milwaukee Brewers' bullpen has been an extraordinary force, allowing just a single run in 28 and two-thirds innings over the first six games. Their dominance has garnered significant attention on social media, with many praising their performance. The Brewers set a new record in baseball history by pitching five perfect innings of relief, allowing 15 batters to reach base in that span.

This impressive feat was demonstrated in the second game of the National League Championship Series, where closer Trevor Megill did not even have to pitch the final three outs in the ninth inning.

The Brewers' bullpen has also shown remarkable control, retiring all 15 batters they faced in a single game during the playoffs, as highlighted by MLB media and fans. Their performance has been consistently described as "almost unhittable" and "nasty business," with expectations for a dominant postseason run.
