Major League Baseball is set to crown a first-time World Series champion!
The Milwaukee Brewers will face the Tampa Bay Rays in a landmark World Series. The Rays have appeared in two World Series, the last being in 2020, while the Brewers have not appeared in the Fall Classic since 1982. Either way, one of these two teams will hoist a trophy and celebrate with fans during a championship parade.
The World Series will start on Friday, Oct. 23. The Brewers will have had over a week of rest since they swept the Los Angeles Dodgers, while the Rays will have three days of rest and recovery after their champagne showers on Monday night.
