Episode Notes

The Milwaukee Brewers just won their first World Series in franchise history, but the stories behind their championship run might be even better than the title itself.

Jeff Passan takes us inside Milwaukee's remarkable season, from the young stars and roster decisions that have turned the Brewers into a small-market powerhouse to the clubhouse chemistry that helped them take down baseball's biggest spenders.

Plus, Jeff shares the emotional moment he witnessed between brothers William and Willson Contreras, Christian Yelich's bold World Series prediction and the story behind the Brewers' now-infamous "rally heaters" tradition — including how a little investigative reporting led to one unforgettable championship celebration.

Finally, Jeff reflects on what made this Brewers team so special, what's next for Milwaukee and the looming labor battle that could threaten baseball's future.
