In the last 40 years, only one MLB player has had a direct outfield assist (no relay) to cut down the potential tying run at the plate and end the game on two separate occasions.
That one player is the @Brewers' Blake Perkins (June 16 last year vs. Reds, Friday night vs. Mets).
The Milwaukee @Brewers:
-Have won 11 straight games
-Own sole possession of first place in the NL Central for the first time this season
-HAVE THE BEST RECORD IN BASEBALL
To put Giannis Antetokounmpo’s absolute dominance into perspective:
Only six players in NBA HISTORY have averaged 30+ PPG, 10+ RPG, & 5+ APG for a season:
Giannis is now set to achieve this feat not once, not twice, not three times, but FOUR seasons IN A ROW.
If that isn’t crazy enough, he stands alone as the only player to ever do it on 55+% shooting. He reached that mark in 2022. And 2023. And 2024. Oh, and again, this year in 2025.
The only players to achieve this statline on 20 or fewer FGA per game? Giannis, in 2022. Giannis in 2023. Giannis in 2024. And again, Giannis, this season in 2025.
This stretch of seasons from 34 is not just historic. It’s an unprecedented level of dominance fueled by efficiency this league has NEVER seen. Not Wilt. Not Kareem. Not Magic. Not Bird. Not Tim. Not Shaq. Not Mike. Not Kobe. Not LeBron.
One of the greatest primes in the history of the NBA, four straight years and counting, immediately following a CHAMPIONSHIP run with the team that drafted you.
Don’t take Giannis Antetokounmpo for granted. There has never been, and never will be, anyone like him. 🇬🇷🏆
@WildKratts_TV We’ll be at the Wild Kratts show at 3:30pm in St. Petersburg tomorrow.
Flew in from Milwaukee and wondering if there are any meet and greet or VIP opportunities available for this show - we’d love to give our 5yo daughter a special birthday surprise.
Thank you!
Congratulations to @SVogt1229, the only AL Manager of the Year to have, in 2018, been a passenger in my 2006 Honda Civic while signed with the @Brewers and also while recovering from a shoulder injury.
For the first time ever, the team that eliminated the Brewers in the playoffs did NOT make it all the way to the World Series
The anti-Brewers World Series curse is broken!
