Game 4: Rays 4, Brewers 3
Chandler Simpson put Tampa Bay ahead in the 2nd with an RBI double that scored Jonny DeLuca. Cooper Pratt tied it in the 4th with an RBI double. In the bottom half, Junior Caminero scored on a DeLuca fielder’s choice and a throwing error by third baseman David Hamilton, a call that stood on a Brewers challenge. Hamilton made up for it in the 5th with a solo homer off Rays starter Griffin Jax, and it stayed 2-2 through 11 innings.
Pratt struck again in the 12th with a solo homer off Ian Seymour for a 3-2 Brewers lead. Then the Rays answered. DeLuca singled home Cedric Mullins to tie it, and Ben Williamson lined a single to right that scored Nick Fortes to end it. Shane Drohan took the loss. A crowd of 40,514 watched a game that ran 4 hours and 20 minutes.
What’s next
Game 5 is tonight at 8:00 PM ET at Tropicana Field. Jacob Misiorowski is the probable starter for Milwaukee, and Tampa Bay has not named its starter. The Brewers are still one win from the title. If needed, Games 6 and 7 would be Oct. 30 and 31 in Milwaukee. Can the Rays push it back to Milwaukee? Tell us on Instagram at @wlitfm. And keep it locked to WLIT.FM.
