You're probably not surprised that we had the first ever sausage race in the World Series last night in Milwaukee.

Carmen DeFalco would be proud of the Italian sausage taking home the win.

And of course, the Brewers took home the win as they lead the fall classic.

It's kind of been like half and half with this year's playoffs.

In any event, American Family Field with the Beer Barrel Polka and the Sausage Race is finally getting a chance to shine in the fall class.

Not that the Beer Barrel Polka didn't exist in 1982 for Brewers games, but the Sausage Race has obviously become iconic ever since the move into this ballpark.

I'm very interested to see what this is going to be like for its first ever World Series championship.

And the people of Milwaukee have waited a long time for this.
