Brewers’ 11-Game Streak Snapped in 1-0 Loss as Fans Miss Out on Free Burgers

Cal Raleigh’s sixth-inning homer off rookie Jacob Misiorowski ended Milwaukee’s bid for 12 straight wins that would have triggered George Webb’s free-burger promotion.

Overview

  • Milwaukee fell 1-0 to the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday, ending its 11-game winning streak just one victory shy of the promotion threshold.
  • Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh provided the lone run with a sixth-inning homer off rookie starter Jacob Misiorowski.
  • The defeat nullified George Webb restaurants’ long-standing offer to give away free burgers if the Brewers secured a 12th consecutive win.
  • The Brewers’ streak had included six victories over the defending World Series champion Dodgers and propelled them to the top of the NL Central.
  • George Webb’s free-burger giveaway dates back to the 1940s and was previously activated after 12-game runs in 1987 and 2018.
