MILWAUKEE—They are beginning to pile up now, ready to be bound in leather like an anthology of great fables. The Canterbury Tales of baseball. William Contreras writing Chapter 1 with a game-winning homer off Adrian Morejon. Jackson Chourio beating Mason Miller. Jake Bauers winning two epic at-bats with a combined time of possession of 12:45. Garrett Mitchell swatting a left-on-left pennant-winning homer. Christian Yelich, in his first World Series at-bat after 14 big league seasons, ripping a triple to drive in the first run of the series.
The Milwaukee Brewers are a true collective. The way they win baseball games is by letting everyone have a turn at spinning yarns that at this rate will have the staying power of Geoffrey Chaucer’s stories.
