During the World Series, the bullpen pitched 25 innings and surrendered only two earned runs. Player performances were exceptional, with Jacob Misiorowski and William Contreras delivering standout pitching. Misiorowski went 2-0 in the playoffs with a 1.89 ERA, while Contreras had a crucial impact with hits, steals, and baserunning.\n\nThe Rays' bullpen was outperformed, as the Brewers' bullpen threw 123 pitches, averaging about 17 pitches per player.
