The CFA World Series is still the most prestigious award in fake sports and the Milwaukee
Brewers and the Cleveland Indians recently met up at the end of a fun October to decide the
2021 champion.
----------------------------------
Yu Darvish started things for the Brew Crew against Justin Verlander but the Indians chipped
his armour very early, as Ronald Acuna and Max Kepler both cleared the wall and put Cleveland
up 2-0 before an out had even been recorded. Milwaukee got the runs back in the 2nd when Brian
Dozier followed a single with a HR of his own, tying the game. Cleveland took the lead again
in the 5th on a couple of sac flies. Gio Urshela went deep in the 7th to draw the Brewers a
run closer and get into the Indians bullpen. Richard Lovelady entered and the Brewers asked
for inspiration from Renato Nunez, who launched a deep one into the left field bleachers and
tied the score. But the joy was very short-lived as a walk and a passed ball in the top of the
8th gave Cleveland a RISP and Carlos Correa hit one through the left side. Giancarlo Stanton
came up throwing but cleared Omar Narvaez's reach by a few feet and the Indians had the lead.
Milwaukee threatened in the 8th but Robert Gsellman closed the door and Joe Jimenez finished
to get the save.
