The early rivalry is between the Milwaukee Brewers and Detroit Tigers.

In a mad dash for the 1950 pennant, both the Brewers and Tigers just fell short, both having to settle for a Wild-Card spot ... the Tigers eventually swept the best-of-three Wild-Card Series.

The Tigers went on to sweep Cleveland in the Division Series and roll over the Mariners before falling to the Brooklyn Dodgers in 4 games in the World Series.
