The player Willson Contreras won a new duel against his brother William in the current Major League season. The St. Louis Cardinals beat the Milwaukee Brewers 8-5 this Saturday.

But beyond that, in this duel, a historic event occurred for the Majors. William and Willson Contreras are the second pair of brothers to hit home runs with different teams in the same inning since 1900.

In this way, the Contreras entered their names in the record book of the majors in the middle of a contested match, between two teams with similar records, which are trying to rise to the center of the National League. The last pair of brothers to achieve this curious feat were Rick and Wes Ferrell on July 19, 1933, according to MLB journalist Sarah Langs, the sports press reported.

It should be noted that this is the eighth time in the trajectories of the Contreras, who have four corners on the same day.
