The Milwaukee Brewers scored eight runs in the fifth inning on Sunday to take a commanding 3-0 lead in the World Series against the Tampa Bay Rays. The lopsided 10-1 final score means the Brewers need only one more win to secure their first championship title.
The offense exploded when the team recorded seven straight two-out hits during the middle of the game. Jackson Chourio was a major factor in the rout, collecting four hits for the night. The performance effectively ended any hopes Tampa Bay had of turning the series around after changing venues.
In the NFL, the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 38-21 to improve their record to 3-4 on the season. CeeDee Lamb and Javonte Williams combined for 229 yards and three touchdowns in the win. The victory keeps the Cowboys in contention for first place in the NFC East.
The Dallas offense overwhelmed a shorthanded Philadelphia lineup. Fantasy football managers who started either Lamb or Williams benefited from the high output. The Eagles have struggled recently, and this loss further complicates their divisional standing.

Game 6 is scheduled for 12:30 p.m. ET on Thursday at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. The series has been competitive, with the Dream fighting back in previous games. A loss on Thursday would end the Dream's season.
