Milwaukee Brewers set franchise record with 98th victory

The Milwaukee Brewers have set a new franchise record for victories in a single season, reaching 98 wins after a 3-0 shutout of the Baltimore Orioles. The victory, which completed a three-game series sweep, moves the Brewers to a 98-58 record, the best in Major League Baseball.

Key individual performances included a solo home run by catcher William Contreras and two RBIs from Cooper Pratt. Pitcher Jacob Misiorowski contributed to the shutout in an abbreviated three-inning start, maintaining a league-leading 1.86 ERA. Additionally, Jackson Chourio became the first player in MLB history to record three consecutive seasons with at least 20 home runs and 20 stolen bases before his 23rd birthday.

The Brewers have already clinched their fourth consecutive NL Central Division title. As the regular season enters its final week, the team is positioned to secure a first-round playoff bye and potentially the National League's top seed, currently held by the Los Angeles Dodgers.
