Overview

  • The Brewers recorded their 100th win in a 5-1 road victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday when Jake Bauers hit a go-ahead eighth-inning single and Jackson Chourio added a ninth-inning home run.
  • Later Thursday night a Los Angeles Dodgers loss confirmed Milwaukee as baseball’s No. 1 overall seed, giving the team home-field advantage for every postseason round.
  • Milwaukee’s season was driven by elite pitching led by Jacob Misiorowski, who ranked among MLB leaders in ERA, strikeouts, strikeouts per nine and adjusted ERA+, and the staff’s depth kept the team consistently competitive.
  • The club reached 100 wins without ever posting a winning streak longer than five games, a first in Major League history that reflects steady, balanced play rather than long hot streaks.
  • The win tops last year’s franchise high of 97 victories, affects the Phillies’ clinch window after Luis Arraez left with an ankle injury, and sends the Brewers into a final regular-season tune-up before Game 1 of the NLDS on Oct. 3.
