The Milwaukee Brewers won the first World Series championship in franchise history Wednesday night, beating the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1 in Game 5 at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, to take the series four games to one.

Starter Jacob Misiorowski held Tampa Bay scoreless over 5 2/3 innings, allowing two hits before leaving with a right calf cramp. Rookie Cooper Pratt had two hits and drove in two runs, including Milwaukee’s first run on a second-inning single and its fourth on a sixth-inning sacrifice fly.

David Hamilton added an RBI single in the fifth, and World Series MVP William Contreras doubled home Christian Yelich in the sixth. Tampa Bay scored its only run in the ninth on Chandler Simpson’s RBI double. Trevor Megill recorded the final six outs for Milwaukee.

Pratt set a World Series rookie record with hits in six consecutive at-bats before his sacrifice fly, while Jackson Chourio finished with 11 hits, a record for a five-game World Series. Contreras batted .381 with four RBIs during the series, according to Colombia One.

The championship came in the franchise’s 58th season. The club began as the Seattle Pilots in 1969 and moved to Milwaukee the following year. Its only previous World Series appearance was in 1982, when it lost Game 7 to the St. Louis Cardinals.
