Milwaukee appeared destined to complete a four-game sweep Tuesday night, taking a 3-2 lead in the 12th inning on a go-ahead home run from rookie Cooper Pratt. However, Tampa Bay refused to go quietly, mounting a stunning comeback in the bottom half of the inning. Jonny DeLuca delivered a game-tying single before Ben Williamson came through with a walk-off hit to give the Rays a 4-3 victory. Despite the heartbreaking loss, the Brewers still hold a commanding 3-1 series lead and have another opportunity to capture the franchise’s first championship.
The Brewers will turn to ace Jacob Misiorowski, who dominated throughout the regular season with a 1.80 ERA and 252 strikeouts. The right-hander allowed just one run over five innings in Milwaukee’s Game 1 victory and will look to deliver another strong performance with a championship on the line. Jackson Chourio has also been outstanding throughout the series, collecting 10 hits through the first four games. Tampa Bay will counter with Drew Rasmussen on short rest, hoping to extend its season and send the World Series back to Milwaukee.
