Heart-stopping replay complicated Brewers' long-awaited World Series win
Brewers somehow gathered themselves to get the final out after the first time didn't stick. The Brewers won their first World Series victory in 44 years after Trevor Megill induced the game-ending double play in a thrilling game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The Rays were challenging the play at second base, but the game was not over. The replay showed that Cooper Pratt's foot barely lifted off the base as he turned what appeared to be the game's game-end double play. The apparent 3-1 victory over the Rays quickly became a 3-2 lead with runners on second and third. Megill was assured that he was fine, but then the next batter was Jonny DeLuca, their No. 6 hitter, who hit 11 homers during the season. The win was marred by a replay challenge.
