Rays and Brewers Take World Series Game 4 Into Extra Innings







Tampa Bay and Milwaukee were still level at 2-2 after nine innings of World Series Game 4, and the game moved into extra innings at Tropicana Field. The available updates establish that play continued beyond the ninth, but do not give a final score or result.

The Rays and Brewers traded the lead through the game. Chandler Simpson opened the scoring for Tampa Bay, and Milwaukee later pulled even in the top of the fourth. The Rays went back in front, 2-1, in the bottom half of that inning.

Milwaukee tied the game again with a solo home run, leaving the teams even at 2-2. The updates do not identify the inning of that home run, so the sequence after the fourth is not fully clear. By the bottom of the ninth, neither side had broken the tie.

More than 40,000 people were at the Trop for Game 4. The crowd gave the Rays a home setting for a late, close game in the championship series, while the Brewers were trying to keep pace on the road.

Extra innings mean the teams continue playing beyond the regulation nine until one side has the lead at the end of an inning. That extends the night for both clubs and puts pressure on the pitching and fielders as the game carries on.

Game 4 is part of the World Series matchup between the American League’s Tampa Bay Rays and the National League’s Milwaukee Brewers. The updates supplied here do not establish the teams’ series standing or explain what a Game 4 result would mean for the next game.

The latest recorded sequence has Tampa Bay and Milwaukee tied at 2-2 after the ninth, then heading into extra innings. The available information does not say how those additional innings unfolded, who won, or whether the game was still being played afterward.
