Brewers Aim to Extend Series Lead Over Rays in Game 2

The Milwaukee Brewers will look to take a commanding 2-0 lead in the World Series when they face the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 2. The Brewers secured a narrow victory in the opening game, continuing their impressive season that saw them achieve the league's best record with 103 wins, despite a payroll significantly lower than many of their competitors.

This championship series features two of baseball's most fiscally conservative teams, sparking renewed debate about competitive balance and revenue sharing within Major League Baseball. The Rays, who finished with 98 wins, are now seeking to even the series on the road. Adding a personal touch to the pre-game festivities, former Brewers manager Paul Molitor is scheduled to throw out the ceremonial first pitch.
