The Milwaukee Brewers won Game 1 of the 2026 World Series against the Tampa Bay Rays 3-2. The game ended dramatically after an overturned double play call on what was initially a game-ending play. Cooper Pratt of the Brewers was ruled to have been off second base, leading to a review that allowed the Rays to keep their hopes alive with runners on second and third.
