The Brewers beat the Phillies, 2-1, on a walkoff single in the ninth by Jake Bauers only hours after learning they'd clinched the Central Division title.

Before the Brewers took the field on Wednesday, they had already locked up the National League Central. A Cubs loss to Oakland that afternoon had brought Milwaukee’s magic number down to zero. Several Phillies exchanged hugs and handshakes of congratulations with old teammate Rhys Hoskins before batting practice.

The Milwaukee Brewers are National League Central Division champs. That was the big baseball story in Milwaukee on Wednesday, news that was confirmed late in the afternoon when the Oakland Athletics closed out a win over the second-place Chicago Cubs.
