The Tampa Bay Rays face elimination Tuesday night at Tropicana Field as the World Series continues against the Milwaukee Brewers, who can clinch their first championship in franchise history with one more win.
Milwaukee took Game 3 on Monday by a lopsided 10-1 score, pushing the Rays into a 3-0 series hole. No team in World Series history has ever come back from that deficit, making Tuesday’s game a true must-win for Tampa Bay.
The Rays entered the postseason as long shots, opening the preseason at 80-to-1 odds to win it all. They’ve reached that underdog status again after Milwaukee’s young pitchers, Jacob Misiorowski and Logan Henderson, shut them down early in the series, with the Brewers’ bats taking over in Game 3 on the road.
Tropicana Field drew a buzzing crowd Monday night, and the stadium is expected to be just as charged for Tuesday’s game as Tampa Bay tries to keep its season alive.
