@dailymailsportusa: After being forced to wait an extra day, the Milwaukee Brewers could finally celebrate their first-ever World Series title on Wednesday night. After over 50 decades in the making, the Brewers were crowned MLB champions as they clinched a historic championship with a 4-1 series triumph over the Tampa Bay Rays. The Brewers had been forced to wait for their long-awaited title after the Rays battled back in extra innings Tuesday night's Game 4. But there was no doubt they would be crowned champions on night later as they stormed to a 4-0 win. Brewers fans have been waiting for their crowning moment since 1970 - the franchise began as the Seattle Pilots in 1969 and moved to Milwaukee a year later - and thousands of fans made the trip from Wisconsin to Florida. Many sported jerseys of blue and gold, some even donned the iconic 'cheese heads' of the region's NFL franchise, the Green Bay Packers, as they sat among the cowbell-ringing Rays crowd. Their celebrations had been made to wait, postponed for one more day after the Rays rallied to a remarkable comeback in the 12th inning in Game 4 for their first win of the season on Tuesday night. But with the Brewers heading into Game 5 with a 3-1 series lead, their historic World Series title had always seemed inevitable. Of the 43 previous major league teams to fall behind 3-0 in any best-of-seven postseason series, only the 2004 Boston Red Sox rallied to win four straight games when they beat the New York Yankees in the American League Championship Series. There have been 25 teams that previously took a 3-0 lead in the World Series. Of those, 21 finished the sweep in Game 4, and the remaining four won the series in Game 5. #milwaukeebrewers #tampabayrays #WorldSeries #MLB #baseball
