CLEVELAND (AP) --- Drew Rasmussen allowed one run over seven innings for his
second postseason win, Tampa Bay's offense kept on constant pressure and the
Rays beat the Cleveland Guardians 3-1 Sunday night to take a 3-2 lead in the AL
Championship Series.
The Rays will try to capture their third AL pennant and first since 2020 on
Monday at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida. Since the LCS expanded to
seven games in 1985, road teams winning Game 5 for a 3-2 lead have won the
series four of five times.
Game 7 if needed would be Tuesday. The World Series starts Friday at NL
champion Milwaukee.
