Not only would a victory maintain his perfect record on the season and extend the Brewers' winning streak to 12 games, free hamburgers for the entire city of Milwaukee were on the line. The Brewers beat the Pirates 12-5 on Wednesday to extend their winning streak to 12 games. George Webb changed the promotion to 12 games when the Brewers moved from Seattle in 1970. In 1987, the Brewers opened the season with 13 wins in a row. Milwaukee has come close on a few occasions since, including an 11-game winning streak earlier this season.
