The Milwaukee Brewers clinched the best record in baseball for just the second time ever and first time since 1982 as well as home-field advantage throughout the postseason after the Philadelphia Phillies‘ 5-0 loss to the Minnesota Twins on Saturday night, Sept. 27.
A large cheer emanated from the crowd at American Family Field as the Brewers played their penultimate game of the 2025 regular season where they hosted the Cincinnati Reds as the Phillies‘ loss went final.
