This victory secures the National League Central title and a first-round postseason bye, making Milwaukee the first team this season to reach the 100-win mark. Key contributors in the milestone win included Jackson Chourio, who hit his 25th home run, and Jake Bauers, who hit the decisive tiebreaking single in the eighth inning. JoJo Romero earned the win, while Antonio Senzatela secured the save. The win also helps the Brewers maintain their pursuit of the top seed in the National League. During the game, the Phillies suffered the loss of National League batting leader Luis Arraez, who left the contest with a sprained left ankle. Despite a strong pitching performance from rookie Andrew Painter, the Phillies' offense was unable to capitalize on multiple opportunities. In roster news, the Brewers placed first baseman Andrew Vaughn on the 10-day injured list due to illness. Separately, updates regarding American Family Field indicate that renovations for the stadium's elevators and escalators are scheduled to begin this offseason. ## Claims - The Milwaukee Brewers won their fourth consecutive NL Central division title.
