Milwaukee beat Tampa Bay 10-1 in Game 3 of the World Series, taking a 3-0 lead with one victory needed.
The Milwaukee Brewers routed the Tampa Bay Rays 10-1 on Monday night in Game 3 of the World Series, taking a 3-0 series lead. The victory at Tropicana Field, Tampa Bay's first World Series game at home in 18 years, moved Milwaukee within one win of their first World Series title.
The Brewers' eighth-inning surge proved decisive. They scored eight runs with two outs in the fifth inning, a World Series first. Brewers batters strung together a postseason-record seven consecutive two-out hits. Brice Turang, Garrett Mitchell and Cooper Pratt combined to drive in five runs in a three-pitch span, opening a 7-0 lead. Jackson Chourio had two hits in the inning and finished 4 for 5 on the night. Milwaukee accumulated 16 hits overall, including three doubles and four singles in that inning.
Brews pitcher Robert Gasser pitched nearly flawlessly, allowing only one hit—a line-drive single to Yandy Díaz in the first inning—through six innings, facing the minimum 18 batters. Gasser became the first left-hander to achieve that in a World Series game since Sandy Koufax for the Dodgers in 1965. Game 4 is Tuesday night at Tropicana Field. Of the 43 major league teams previously to fall behind 3-0 in a best-of-seven postseason series, only the 2004 Boston Red Sox rallied to win, overcoming the New York Yankees in the American League Championship Series.
