Drew Rasmusssen Can’t Make It Through 4th Inning as Rays Blow 4-0 Lead in Game 2 Loss to Brewers
Milwaukee erased a 4-0 deficit as Rasmussen allowed three runs in 3 2/3 innings and the Brewers tied the series, the AP said.
- On Saturday, the Milwaukee Brewers defeated the Tampa Bay Rays 5-4, securing a 2-0 lead in the World Series after rallying from an early four-run deficit.
- Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Drew Rasmussen exited in the fourth inning after throwing 89 pitches, unable to contain a Milwaukee lineup that specializes in grinding starters by extending plate appearances.
- Sal Frelick's solo home run in the sixth inning tied the game, and Brice Turang's seventh-inning double preceded Cooper Pratt's go-ahead RBI single that proved decisive.
- After the Rays scored four runs in the first against rookie Logan Henderson, Milwaukee's bullpen allowed no further runs across six scoreless innings, frustrating Tampa Bay's offense.
- Games 3 through 5 shift to St. Petersburg, where the Rays must prevent falling into a 3-0 deficit against a Milwaukee team seeking its first championship in franchise history.
