Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 27 Oct, 22:03 · Archive

Milwaukee Brewers fans have flocked to Tropicana Field with their team leading the Tampa Bay Rays 3-0 in the World Series.

Thousands of Milwaukee Brewers fans made the trip to St Petersburg, Florida, to watch Game 4 of the World Series at Tropicana Field. With the Brewers leading the Tampa Bay Rays 3-0, the team needed only one more win to clinch their first World Series title in franchise history. Fans gathered in the parking lot more than four hours before the match, drinking Wisconsin beers and preparing to celebrate.

The Brewers secured a 10-1 victory on Monday night, with large numbers of Wisconsin fans sitting behind the visitors' dugout and along the third-base line. Player Garrett Mitchell highlighted the energy supporters brought to the road game. 'The atmosphere here with the amount of Brewers fans, you can feel it, and it started in batting practice yesterday,' he said. 'You could hear lots of Let's Go Brewers chants. To have that on the road, pretty special.'

The Brewers' franchise has been waiting for a World Series title since its move to Milwaukee in 1970. Only one team has ever recovered from a 3-0 deficit in a best-of-seven postseason series: the 2004 Boston Red Sox, who beat the New York Yankees in the American League Championship Series.
