The New York Yankees were on the receiving end of a foul-mouthed taunt as the Milwaukee Brewers celebrated a first ever World Series title on Wednesday night.

The Brewers clinched the historic championship with a 4-1 series triumph over the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg, Florida.

For manager Pat Murphy, 67, it was the crowning moment of a long career in baseball that has included scandal and a heart attack that saw him rushed from the ballpark six years ago.

But even as Milwaukee began the party at Tropicana Field on Wednesday night, Murphy couldn't resist a jab at the Yankees. During the celebrations on the field, first baseman Jake Bauers handed his manager the last out ball before pulling Murphy in for a hug.

Bauers was crowned MVP of the National League Championship Series and earned $2.7 million this season. But he is headed to free agency and Murphy told the first baseman: 'You're going to be a rich f**er.

'Just remember when you're on that horsesh** Yankees team and you guys are all playing for yourselves, just remember: this is the way we used to do it,' the manager continued in the viral clip.

His comments drew a laugh from Bauers, who responded: 'You ain't getting rid of me that easy!'

The Yankees suffered more playoff heartbreak this season, losing to the Rays to extend their championship drought to 17 years. 

For the Brewers, meanwhile, Wednesday night's win over Tampa Bay sealed a 4-1 World Series win and ensured Milwaukee finished the postseason with an 11-2 record.

Bauers played a key role for Murphy's team and he is expected to be a highly coveted free agent.

'I'm most proud of the way the lineup came together and bought into a singular approach,' Bauers said. 'One through nine. Throughout the entire season, the way they executed, it was f***ing exciting.'

Brewers fans have been waiting for a championship since 1970 - the franchise began as the Seattle Pilots in 1969 before moving to Milwaukee a year later - and thousands of fans made the trip from Wisconsin to Florida to witness the moment of history.
