  • From Magnolia Heights to World Series champion: Cooper Pratt gave the Mid-South a major reason to celebrate, helping Milwaukee beat Tampa Bay 4–1 Wednesday night to win the series in five games and capture the Brewers’ first championship. Pratt played his high school baseball in Senatobia, Mississippi.
    • Pratt was central to the championship: The 22-year-old rookie shortstop finished the World Series 8-for-19, batting .421 with a home run and seven RBIs—a remarkable performance just four months after his major league debu

  • He delivered in the clincher: Pratt collected two hits and drove in two runs in Game 5. His second-inning single opened the scoring, and his sixth-inning sacrifice fly extended Milwaukee’s lead to 4–0. He also scored during the fifth inning.
  • A historic hitting streak: Across Games 4 and 5, Pratt recorded six consecutive hits, setting a World Series rookie record and surpassing Brian Doyle’s five-hit streak for the Yankees in 1978.
  • His Game 4 performance nearly ended the series a night earlier: Pratt went 4-for-5 with a double, a homer and two RBIs. His solo shot in the 12th inning put Milwaukee ahead 3–2 before Tampa Bay rallied to stay alive.
  • Milwaukee finished the job behind its young ace: Jacob Misiorowski supplied 5⅔ scoreless innings in Game 5, while William Contreras earned World Series MVP honors. The Brewers finished an outstanding postseason 11–2.
  • The local takeaway: A player who developed at Magnolia Heights became one of the biggest offensive contributors on baseball’s biggest stage. For Senatobia and the surrounding Mid-South baseball community, Pratt’s championship came with a record-setting performance to remember.
