Rays stun Brewers with 2-run rally in 12th inning and force World Series Game 5 with 4-3 win
Tampa Bay Rays staged a dramatic 12th-inning rally, securing a 4-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers and preserving their World Series aspirations, as Jonny DeLuca and pinch-hitter Ben Williamson each hit home runs. Cooper Pratt's tying home run in the top of the 12th inning marked his fourth hit of the game, while Liam Hicks' single set the stage for DeLuca's single to center, driving in Cedric Mullins to tie the score at 3.
Chandler Simpson's subsequent single loaded the bases, leading to Williamson's game-winning chopper over first baseman Jake Bauers. This victory forced Game 5, set for Wednesday night at Tropicana Field. Tampa Bay joins an elite group of just five teams to overcome a 3-0 deficit in World Series history.
