For the third time in four years, the Milwaukee Brewers have won the National League Central.
\"It was like nobody thought we were going to be here today,\" Willy Adames said. \"Now we\'re here. I don\'t know what they\'re going to say after this.\"
The Brewers became the first Major League team to reach the postseason Wednesday afternoon when the Chicago Cubs\' 5-3 home loss to the Oakland Athletics enabled the Brewers to wrap up the division crown.
The party began in earnest Wednesday night after Jake Bauers\' ninth-inning RBI single gave the Brewers a 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. Blue-and-gold streamers fell into the American Family Field stands as the team gathered in shallow center field.
That led to a champagne-soaked celebration in the locker room before players returned to the field to pose for a team picture while receiving a standing ovation from the fans who remained.
