Manager Pat Murphy's Milwaukee Brewers clinched the World Series title with a 4-1 Game 5 win over the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg that led to huge celebrations from starter Jacob Misiorowski afterward. Misiorwoski thanked and complimented teammates including William Contreras as his team continued to celebrate, while a Hall-of-Fame former Brewers and Oakland A's star chimed in.

Hall-of-Famer Rollie Fingers, who played for the Brewers from 1981-1982 and again from 1984-1985, was interviewed on a local FOX station and was asked to share his thoughts on what it's like to watch the Brewers' ace.

“For a tall, thin guy, he gets it up there in a hurry, I don't think I'd want to hit against him, he's nasty,” Fingers said.

Fingers was elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame on August 2, 1992, after winning the Cy Young and American League MVP with Milwaukee in 1981.

The Brewers star Misiorowski set a World Series record with a 103.5-MPH fastball and went on to pitch over ten innings in the World Series, giving up just one earned run and striking out five batters while walking two. He gave up six hits during his team's final, clinching series, as they secured their first championship in franchise history.

Murphy's pitching staff appears to be in good hands going forward after the 24-year-old Brewers ace's strong season and postseason, along with the success of his teammates. Few observers expected the Brewers to get past the Dodgers this season, but they likely didn't watch Misiorowski play. He now has his validation, and will soon have his World Series ring, after proving the doubters wrong, and delighting franchise legends like Fingers in the process.
