Rays Tie ALCS at Two Games Apiece With 7-3 Win Over Cleveland, Turning Game 5 Into a Pivotal Test

Tampa Bay Rays · Cleveland Guardians

CLEVELAND — The American League Championship Series will not be decided by the early momentum that belonged to the Cleveland Guardians. Tampa Bay's 7-3 victory in Saturday's Game 4 at Progressive Field tied the best-of-seven series at two wins apiece and guaranteed a return to the Rays' home ballpark for Game 6. A series that had threatened to tilt decisively toward Cleveland is now essentially a best-of-three contest.
