Brewers beat Pirates to win 12th straight game, trigger rare free burgers promotion from George Webb
The Brewers won their 12th straight game Wednesday afternoon when they beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 12-5 at American Family Field. That triggered a promotion that has been around in Milwaukee since the 1940s and earned local residents a free burger from George Webb.
The George Webb giveaway became a sensation in 1987 when the "Team Streak" Brewers were just getting started on a wild journey.
