Dominant Brewers On The Cusp: 4 Takeaways From World Series Game 3 Win Over Rays

The Milwaukee Brewers secured a 10-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays in World Series Game 3 at Tropicana Field, extending their series lead to 3-0. This result places the 103-win club one win away from their first franchise championship, a feat that would follow a previous sweep of the Los Angeles Dodgers earlier in October.

The Rays, who are also pursuing their first title, now face the impossible task of winning four consecutive games, a scenario that has never occurred in World Series history.

Milwaukee's offense exploded in the fifth inning, scoring eight runs without a single home run to extend a 2-0 lead. Jackson Chourio recorded two hits to right field, while Brice Turang drove in two runs on a ground ball that evaded shortstop Taylor Walls.

Garrett Mitchell and Cooper Pratt added RBI singles and doubles, respectively, and Sal Frelick scored twice on Pratt's hit. Pitcher Peralta, who spent eight years with Milwaukee before being traded to the Mets, struggled against his former teammates, allowing Chourio to go 3-for-3 and Christian Yelich to reach base in all three of his at-bats.
