Brewers manager Pat Murphy eyes third consecutive Manager of the Year award

Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy is the frontrunner to secure a third consecutive National League Manager of the Year award when Major League Baseball announces winners this November. No individual has ever won the honor three years in a row. The Brewers currently lead the National League with 90 wins and remain on track to finish with the best record in baseball for the second straight season. The team is ten wins away from reaching 100 victories for the first time in franchise history and needs eight more wins to surpass the previous single-season record. Murphy has achieved this performance while managing a roster with limited power, as the team has hit the fewest home runs in the league. The Brewers continue to rely on internal player development and a balanced core featuring Christian Yelich, William Contreras, Jacob Misiorowski, and Jackson Chourio.
