WTF Stats

If you want more crazy stats, we put the 1,000 craziest stats we could find in 1 book. a.co/d/00ZjN4Sn

Game 5 was the 11th time a pitcher has thrown 50+ pitches at 100+ mph in a game in the pitch tracking era (incl. postseason) All by 11 of those are by Jacob Misiorowski. He also has ALL of the 50 fastest pitches thrown by a starting pitcher in a World Series game (in pitch tracking era).

Cooper Pratt is the first rookie in World Series history to do ANY of the following: • have 3-straight multi-RBI games • hit a HR in extra innings • get a hit in 6 straight at-bats

In each of their final 18 games of 2026 (incl. postseason) the Brewers: • allowed fewer than 5 runs • allowed fewer than 10 hits • struck out 5+ batters That's the longest streak by any team at any point in a season or postseason in MLB history.

The Brewers didn’t allow more than 4 runs in a single one of their 13 postseason games. They’re the 3rd team (1983 Orioles & 1990 Reds) in the LCS era (since 1969) to do this.

The team with the better record won every single series this postseason. This is the first time this has happened in the Wild Card era (since 1995).

The Brewers were undefeated in 2026 following a 4-3 loss (9-0). H/t @JayCuda

The Brewers won their first World Series in franchise history (57 years). Now there’s only 4 MLB teams without a World Series Title: • Rays • Mariners • Padres • Rockies

This century, this same sequence has happened every 10 years: • NL Central team loses in the NLCS • The Broncos host the AFC Championship game • That same NL Central team wins the World Series

The Panthers allowed 549 total rush yards across 2 games. Week 1 vs. Bears: 291 rush yards allowed Week 7 vs. Bucs: 258 rush yards allowed The Packers have only rushed for 419 yards this season (7 games).

The Brewers were the 26th team in World Series history to take a 3-0 lead. The Rays are only the 5th team in World Series history to go to Game 5 after being down 3-0. No team has ever reached Game 6 of the World Series after being down 3-0.

The Brewers are the first team in MLB history to be 3 outs away from a World Series title & lose the game without getting any of those 3 outs.

The Rays are the 4th team in World Series history with an extra-inning comeback to avoid elimination. The other 3 all went on to win the World Series. • 2011 Cardinals • 1986 Mets • 1912 Red Sox

Jackson Chourio is the 2nd player in MLB history to have 10 hits in the first 4 games of a World Series. Babe Ruth is the other (1928).

The Brewers scored 8 runs with 2 outs in the 5th inning. That’s the most 2-out runs in an inning in World Series history.

The Brewers are the first team in MLB history to have 7 consecutive batters get a hit in a postseason game.

Jackson Chourio has a career batting average of .278 in the regular season & .312 in the postseason. His stats during the 2026 World Series: .571 avg 0 HR 2 RBI 4 R 3 SB

The Brewers are 8-0 on the 26th day of the month in 2026 while outscoring their opponents 61-9.

If the Brewers win Game 4, they’ll be the first team in MLB history to complete a 4-game sweep in the LCS & World Series.

The 49ers have NEVER won a game after trailing by 10+ points in the 4th quarter under Kyle Shanahan (0-49). Every other NFL team has at least 1 such win during that span. H/t @DanLeBatardShow
