History for Milwaukee Brewers after defeating Rays 4-1 to clinch first World Series

THE MILWAUKEE BREWERS won the first World Series title in franchise history on Wednesday, beating the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1 to clinch victory in Major League Baseball’s championship showcase. Rookie shortstop Cooper Pratt drove in one run, plated another with a sacrifice fly and scored as the Brewers — denied a sweep by the Rays’ thrilling extra-innings comeback win on Tuesday — celebrated a four games to one victory in the best-of-seven series at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida.
