The Tampa Bay Rays and Milwaukee Brewers only played three games during the regular season, so these teams aren’t overly familiar with each other. The two teams haven’t played since the last week of March, so things have changed. Let’s take a quick look at the three games from the season and how they went.
In game 1 of the regular season series, the Rays won 3-2. That game started with Yandy Diaz hitting a home run to give the Brewers a lead. William Contreras hit a two-run homer in the sixth to give the Brewers a lead. Then, in the top of the seventh, the Rays tied the game before getting to closer Trevor Megill in the ninth.
Game 2 saw the Brewers win with a 6-2 victory. This wasn’t as much of a back-and-forth game. The game started with another homer for the Rays and another run in the fifth, but that was all they could muster. In the bottom of the 5th, the Brewers got three runs. In the bottom of the sixth, they added another two and an insurance run in the eighth.
The final game of the series went to the Brewers with an 8-2 win. For the third straight game, the Rays scored first, and they did it via a home run. A two-run homer from Yandy Diaz was all they could muster on offense. In the bottom of the 3rd, the Brewers tied it with a two-run bomb of their own off Bryce Turang’s bat. The Rays bullpen fell apart in the eighth inning as the Brewers scored six runs.
