Story summary

The Tampa Bay Rays staved off elimination in the World Series by defeating the Milwaukee Brewers 4-3 in extra innings during Game 4 on October 28, 2026. The game was tied at 3-3 until Jonny DeLuca and pinch-hitter Ben Williamson hit crucial singles in the bottom of the 12th inning to secure the win for Tampa Bay. This victory forced a decisive Game 5, keeping alive the Rays' hopes of winning their first World Series title. The Brewers had been on the verge of sweeping the series after winning three consecutive games and leading by one run late into extra innings. Despite this setback, Milwaukee remains in strong position to claim its first World Series championship since joining the league as the Seattle Pilots in 1969.
