The Tampa Bay Rays are being pushed to their limit by the Cleveland Guardians. Nonetheless, over the past two days, the Rays have shown why they were the best team in the AL this past season. After falling down 2-1 in the ALCS, the Rays have bounced back with two consecutive victories on the road — with Tampa Bay having taken a 3-2 lead in the series courtesy of a 3-1 win on Sunday.
With that victory, the Rays are now knocking on the door of the World Series, where the Milwaukee Brewers await. It seems like the postponement of Friday night's contest due to inclement weather helped them immensely, as Game 6 (as well as Game 7, if necessary) will be at Tropicana Field — giving Tampa Bay a golden opportunity to secure their third appearance in the Fall Classic.
Moreover, if the Rays were to win another game against the Guardians in the ALCS, they would ensure a rare World Series phenomenon with the Milwaukee Brewers already waiting on the other side of the bracket. As per Rays insider Steve Carney, if Tampa Bay were to advance to the next round, this would be the first World Series matchup in 46 years between two teams that have never won a ******* le.
