The Milwaukee Brewers secured their first World Series victory since 1982 with a narrow 3-2 win over the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 1 on Friday night. Despite the Rays loading the bases in the ninth inning, Liam Hicks grounded into what was initially called a double play but overturned after a replay review showed shortstop Cooper Pratt's foot was off second base. The game-winning strikeout went to Jonny DeLuca, sealing the victory for the Brewers. Christian Yelich’s RBI triple in the first inning set the tone, while Trevor Megill shut down the Rays’ late rally. Jacob Misiorowski earned the win with five innings of one-run ball. This marks the first World Series since 1980 featuring two teams without a previous title.
