Show Notes

THE BREWERS ARE ONE WIN AWAY FROM A WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP! 🏆⚾

Milwaukee demolished the Tampa Bay Rays 10-1 in Game 3 of the 2026 World Series, fueled by a HISTORIC eight-run fifth inning, an incredible performance from Jackson Chourio and six scoreless innings from Robert Gasser.

The Brewers now lead the World Series 3-0, putting them one victory away from the first championship in franchise history!

DVR and Eno are back from Milwaukee and breaking down everything that went right for the Brewers, everything that went wrong for the Rays, and what to expect in a potential World Series clincher in Game 4.

🔥 JACKSON CHOURIO MAKES WORLD SERIES HISTORY

Four hits. A stolen base. And another incredible performance on baseball's biggest stage.

Chourio joins some extraordinary historical company, with a World Series performance that showcased his plate discipline, contact skills, defense and speed.

DVR and Eno explain what made Chourio's performance so impressive and why the young Brewers star deserves recognition for one of the biggest games of his career.

💥 THE BREWERS' HISTORIC EIGHT-RUN INNING

Milwaukee exploded for EIGHT RUNS WITH TWO OUTS in the fifth inning, setting a World Series record.

But the inning nearly ended before any of those runs scored.

A crucial replay review overturned an out at second base after Junior Caminero's decision to throw toward the bag instead of first. From there, the Brewers relentlessly attacked Tampa Bay's pitching with singles and doubles.

Eno examines Milwaukee's opposite-field approach, how the Brewers wore down former teammate Freddy Peralta and why this lineup's ability to string together hits has become such a dangerous weapon.

⚾ ROBERT GASSER'S DOMINANT WORLD SERIES START

Six scoreless innings. One hit. One walk. Three strikeouts.

Robert Gasser delivered exactly what Milwaukee needed in Game 3, shutting down Tampa Bay while keeping the Brewers' most trusted relievers rested.

Eno breaks down Gasser's pitch locations, his ability to command the bottom of the strike zone and how he kept the Rays from generating dangerous contact.

👀 WORLD SERIES GAME 4 PREVIEW

The Brewers have a chance to complete the sweep.

But who takes the ball in Game 4?

With starting plans still uncertain at the time of recording, DVR and Eno explore potential pitching combinations involving Griffin Jax, Ian Seymour, Shane Drohan, Dustin May and Brandon Woodruff.

Milwaukee's best relievers are rested. Tampa Bay is playing for its season.

Could the Rays have a small pitching advantage in Game 4, or is Milwaukee's bullpen simply too deep?

🏆 ONE WIN FROM HISTORY

Can the Brewers complete the sweep and bring Milwaukee its first World Series championship?

Or will the Rays finally break through and send the series to Game 5?
