The 2026 World Series continues tonight, Oct. 24, with Game 2.
Last night, the National League champion Milwaukee Brewers took Game 1, 3-2, with a dramatic finish that required two final outs.
With Tampa Bay runners on second and third, Trevor Megill struck out Jonny DeLuca to clinch the win after Tampa Bay’s Liam Hicks had grounded into an apparent game-ending double play that was overturned after a video review.
