Quick Summary

The Tampa Bay Rays staged an impressive comeback in Game 4 of the World Series, winning after trailing with only three outs left in the 12th inning. The article highlights how the Rays managed to score four hits in that final inning alone, contrasting their previous performance where they had just five hits throughout the first eleven innings. Despite this momentum shift, the Milwaukee Brewers still hold a series lead of 3-1 and will send their ace pitcher Jacob deGrom (referred to as Misiorowski in error) to the mound for Game 5, who has been dominant both during the regular season and in the playoffs, though facing him for a second time presents an opportunity for the Rays.

Story summary

The Tampa Bay Rays kept their hopes of winning the 2026 World Series alive on October 28, 2026, with a dramatic 4-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers in Game 4 at Tropicana Field. The Rays won in extra innings after rallying in the bottom of the 12th inning to avoid being swept by the Brewers. Despite falling behind 3-0 late in the game, they tied it with a single from Jonny DeLuca and then clinched victory on a pinch-hit chopper by Ben Williamson that scored the winning run.

Milwaukee had been leading the series 3-0 going into Game 4 but saw their championship hopes temporarily dashed after an overturned call prevented them from extending their lead in the ninth inning. The Brewers, who were seeking their first World Series title, now face a must-win scenario in Game 5 to avoid being swept.

The game was the most exciting of the series so far, filled with tension and clutch plays that kept fans on edge until the final out. Game 5 is scheduled for Wednesday night at Tropicana Field, where the Rays will have another chance to extend their improbable comeback and level the series.
