Why does Pardon My Take call the Milwaukee Brewers the best team in baseball?

With Milwaukee up 2-0 on the Rays in the World Series, Pardon My Take said the Brewers never flinch: they rally late, they always answer when scored on, and they pressure opponents into mistakes. The hosts pointed to a badly judged send of Liam Hicks at the plate and a Rays attempt to steal third with Yandy Diaz batting against a battery that had allowed three stolen bases all year.

• The Brewers came back from a 4-0 deficit in game two.
• The hosts said Milwaukee has trailed in nine of ten recent games and won eight of them.
• One host predicted the Rays take game three but the Brewers win the series in five.
