The Milwaukee Brewers set a new franchise record with 14 consecutive wins during the 2025 MLB season, surpassing their previous best. Their streak included a notable comeback victory against the Cincinnati Reds, overcoming a seven-run deficit to win 10-8 in extra innings, with Andruw Monasterio hitting a decisive three-run homer in the 11th inning. This winning streak further extended their lead over the second-place Chicago Cubs in the National League Central division. However, the Brewers' streak ended at 14 games when the Reds defeated them 3-2 in a walk-off fashion in extra innings. Following the streak's conclusion, the Brewers prepared for a critical five-game series against the Cubs at Wrigley Field, with the Cubs aiming to keep their slim hopes alive for the NL Central title. The Brewers' recent surge has been recognized as an outlier in MLB, exploiting market inefficiencies and demonstrating strong performance despite past playoff struggles.
