For a team that has dominated so thoroughly, the Brewers have made a surprising number of errors this postseason.
My one contribution to the unending Tampa Bay fan discourse is the local hockey team, the Lightning, is extraordinarily popular and draws remarkably well. So I think that obliterates the argument that sports by default can't work in this market.

In the past two weeks, the Brewers have faced Tarik Skubal, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Blake Snell and Drew Rasmussen.
They knocked them around for 12 runs in 17 ⅓ innings -- a 6.23 ERA.
They are an absolute marvel.

Milwaukee’s relentless approach at the plate has survived everything October has thrown at it, all the way to a 2-0 World Series lead. on.wsj.com/4yHm3Pl
In the last two weeks, the Brewers have faced Tarik Skubal, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow and Drew Rasmussen.
They won every one of those games.
New @WSJ, on the team that not even baseball's best pitchers can stop:

A new record for Aaron Ashby. 🔥
Here comes Aaron Ashby, who has 14 scoreless innings of relief this postseason. The record is 14 1/3, set by Goose Gossage in 1981.

Reliever Aaron Ashby hasn’t allowed a single run during Milwaukee’s postseason run. And in the World Series on Friday night, he delivered Milwaukee to a Game 1 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. on.wsj.com/4yCtirK
