They did it!...
Down 3-1 and barely on life support, the Rays came back to take the next three from the Angels and advance to the World Series against Milwaukee. The good Emiliano Teodo showed up today with a dominating performance and the bullpen held up while the bats did enough to give them a comfortable lead through most of the game. Carson Williams had his biggest game of the postseason, hitting an RBI double to make it 4-0 and then after LA pulled within 4-2 after 7 he added a key RBI single to provide a much-appreciated insurance run.
We're still looking for our first title in this save, having gotten as far as the 2027 World Series before losing to the Dodgers.
