Brewers vs Rays live updates, World Series score: ALCS MVP Freddy Peralta, Robert Gasser to start Game 3
The Milwaukee Brewers and Tampa Bay Rays return for Game 3 of the World Series, with first pitch at 8 p.m. ET Monday at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida.
The Rays find themselves in an 0-2 hole as they return home after a disastrous Game 2 loss. In that one, Tampa Bay took a four-run lead in the top of the first, but didn’t score again, and the Brewers chipped away. Sal Frelick tied the game with a leadoff homer in the sixth, and Cooper Pratt drove in Brice Turang with the go-ahead run in the seventh for a 5-4 victory.

In Game 3, the Brewers will rely on left-hander Robert Gasser (5-5, 3.87 ERA). He recently pitched five scoreless innings against the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 3 of the NLCS, allowing 3 hits and 1 walk while striking out 3 in a 6-2 victory.
The Rays will counter with right-hander Freddy Peralta (10-11, 4.42 ERA), who was named ALCS MVP after allowing just one earned run on 9 hits with 9 strikeouts in 12 innings in three appearances, including two starts, against the Cleveland Guardians.

Sal Frelick adds another RBI double and that will do it for Booser. In the span of 12 pitches, he went from a two-point game to an eight-point game.

That’s three straight first-pitch RBI hits, this time a Cooper Pratt double, with two outs for the Brewers. If Milwaukee doesn’t win this World Series, it’s going to be remembered for a while.

Garrett Mitchell with another single. The Rays now need a big comeback in this game to avoid needing an even bigger comeback in this series.

Call canceled. The Brewers will have the bases loaded with two outs and Brice Turang batting. That will do it for Freddy Peralta, who comes out after 87 pitches in 4 2/3 innings.
It will be Cam Booser who will try to keep this game winnable for the Rays.

With runners on first and second and two outs, Junior Caminero throws a spinning pitch to second to end the inning. The Brewers are contesting the call, and replay certainly makes it look like they’re going to win.

Robert Gasser hasn’t allowed a hit since Yandy Díaz’s single early in the game. He is at 44 pitches and has always faced the minimum.

Sal Frelick flies out to Chandler Simpson, less theatrically this time, to end a 1-2-3 inning for Freddy Peralta. He’s at 64 pitches in four and we’ll see how far he goes with the Brewers’ top order expected to be for the third time next inning.
