    All these years and I still can’t get used to the Brewers being in the NL.
    I’ve always been a Robin Yount fan so I’m going Brewers. And the celebration if they win would be epic. 🥳

    I'm absolutely on board with this matchup. It should be a great World Series and I'm rooting for the Brew Crew to bring the trophy back to the NL Central. It would be cool to see it go the distance as we are all aware of the potential for a work (play) stoppage on December 1. So let's enjoy this and then root for our knucklehead sports heroes to tie the knot on the agreement with the Evil Empire ownership, so we can eagerly chat about it 2027.

    Good to see some new blood in the Series. Will like watching this one. Got a bet in on TB, but either way long as it's competitive will like the games.

    this. the Brewers will always be AL in my mind and the Astros will always be NL.

    I wonder who else is old enough to remember Milwaukee’s original MLB team and also the short lived Seattle Pilots.

    No looking on Google!! 😂😂😇

    Yeah we all know the Boston Braves came to MKE to become the Milwaukee Braves before heading to Atlanta. Then Selig bought the Pilots and moved them to MKE in 69.

    But the Brewers were a team as far back as the 1880s and you can see the original names in some the Brewers alternate jerseys through the years.

    Every baseball fan in Wisconsin should know this.

    Always remembered "Bernie Brewer" sliding into the mug of beer after a home run. The new version is more "Family friendly" I guess....................
