The Milwaukee Brewers made franchise history on Wednesday night, defeating the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1 in Game 5 of the World Series to capture their first championship.

Behind a dominant pitching performance from Jacob Misiorowski and timely hitting from rookie Cooper Pratt, Milwaukee closed out the series four games to one and ended a 57 year wait for its first World Series title.

After Tampa Bay avoided elimination with a dramatic extra inning victory in Game 4, the Brewers entered Wednesday determined to finish the job. Milwaukee delivered a strong performance on both sides of the ball, limiting the Rays’ offense while generating enough runs to establish control early.

The Brewers are finally World Series champions. After decades of waiting, Milwaukee can celebrate the first championship in franchise history, completing a remarkable season with a performance that will be remembered by the organization and its fans for generations.

The New York Giants defeated the Houston Texans 27-21 in overtime on Sunday, improving to 4-2-1 and entering their bye week alone in first place in the NFC East.

Cam Skattebo delivered a redemption performance after receiving zero touches in Week 6. He carried the ball 17 times for 124 yards and scored on a 16-yard run in the fourth quarter that gave New York a 21-14 lead. He also ripped off a 42-yard gain in overtime that set up the game-winning score.

J.J. McCarthy, making his first start for the Giants, completed 20 of 28 passes for 252 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions. He managed the offense efficiently, protected the football, and helped New York control the ball for more than 35 minutes.

The Giants’ balanced attack and disciplined defense overcame a double-digit underdog role to secure the road victory before the bye.

Devin Singletary, a former Texan, sealed the win in overtime with a 30-yard touchdown run on a three-play, 81-yard drive.

Despite mounting a second half charge, the Jets never grabbed a lead in their 28-25 loss to the Dolphins at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. The Green & White dropped to 2-5 while the Dolphins (1-5) won their first game of the season.

In defeat, rookie WR Omar Cooper Jr. (5-115-1TD) had his second consecutive 100-yard, 1 TD game while TE Mason Taylor had the first 2-TD game of his career and added a 2-point conversion. Third-year RB Braelon Allen rushed for 104 yards on 17 carries, but the Jets were playing catch-up from the start. Fresh off their bye, the Dolphins scored touchdowns on three of their first four possession and took a 21-7 lead into intermission.

Geno Smith finished 23-of-30 passing for 287 yards, 3 TDs and 1 INT. With the Jets trailing 21-14 in the fourth quarter, the Jets had a first-and-goal at the 1-yard line but had to settle for a field goal, 21-17.

But the Dolphins took over with 3:17 remaining and closed the game on the ground. A successful rush on fourth-and-1 by QB Malik Willis with under two minutes to play allowed Miami to run out the clock to end the game.
