The Brewers have grown accustomed to outperforming forecasts every year, but this season might represent their most remarkable accomplishment yet.

During a season in which they have built the best record in the majors, the Brewers reached their latest milestone by becoming the first team to clinch a playoff berth.

According to MLB, the New York Mets' 3-2 loss to the Texas Rangers on Saturday sealed at least a National League wild card for the Brewers as they got ready to play Saturday night against the St. Louis Cardinals.
