Brewers set franchise record with 98th win; shut out Orioles 3–0 to sweep

What happened

The ESPN recap from Sunday night in Baltimore has the Milwaukee Brewers earning their franchise-record 98th victory by beating the Baltimore Orioles 3–0 and completing a three-game sweep. William Contreras homered, Cooper Pratt drove in two, and Milwaukee (98–58) owns the best record in the majors after surpassing the 97 wins it posted last season. That is the Sports filing: a Camden Yards shutout, a franchise-record board, and cartoon ballplayers only—never likenesses of living athletes.

Jacob Misiorowski worked three innings in a planned abbreviated outing after yielding a hit and striking out four; the right-hander leads the majors in ERA (1.86) and strikeouts (247) and moved into second place on the Brewers’ single-season strikeouts list behind Ben Sheets (264 in 2004). The Brewers manufactured a run in the second when Jake Bauers walked, advanced on a grounder, and scored on Pratt’s two-out single. Contreras smacked a 403-foot leadoff homer in the fourth for his 18th of the season. Pratt added an RBI single in the seventh. DL Hall (4–0) pitched 1 2/3 innings, and Trevor Megill worked the ninth for his 29th save. Bright Brewers navy and gold. White gutters. The ESPN recap URL is the receipt.

September baseball still moves franchise math on nights like this. Milwaukee has already clinched its fourth consecutive NL Central title, Baltimore managed four hits and was shut out for a second straight game, and readers get Contreras’s 18th homer, Pratt’s two RBI, Misiorowski’s abbreviated three, Hall’s bridge, Megill’s 29th save, Brewers 3–0, the franchise-record 98th win, the sweep, and the source URL—not a season retrospective, just one Sunday’s wire from Baltimore.

Why it matters

A Camden Yards shutout that rewrites the franchise wins board is the strip: CRACK into the seats, RBI singles, FINAL 3–0 board. Color on the navy jerseys and the gold confetti. White gutters. Readers get Contreras’s leadoff fourth homer, Pratt’s two RBI, Misiorowski’s ERA/K lead note, Hall and Megill in relief, Milwaukee’s 98–58 majors-best mark, the snapped Orioles bats, the completed sweep, the already-clinched NL Central, and the source URL on the page.

Conclusion

The Brewers set a franchise record with their 98th victory by shutting out the Orioles 3–0 on Sunday in Baltimore, completing a three-game sweep behind William Contreras’s 18th homer, Cooper Pratt’s two RBI, Jacob Misiorowski’s three-inning abbreviated start, DL Hall’s 1 2/3, and Trevor Megill’s 29th save, as Milwaukee improved to 98–58 with the majors’ best record after already clinching a fourth straight NL Central title, per ESPN.
