Content overview: “Nick Martinez, Rays Bullpen Stave Off World Series Elimination in Game 4, but Dodgers Stil”. The Tampa Bay Rays avoided a World Series sweep with a dramatic 8-7 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4, but the victory may be only a temporary reprieve. With ace Tyler Glasnow unable to start due to injury, the Rays turned to Ryan Yarbrough, who lasted just 3.1 innings. The bullpen, led by Nick Martinez, held the Dodgers scoreless over the final 5.2 innings, allowing the Rays to rally from a 7-6 deficit in the ninth.
Brett Phillips delivered the game-winning hit, a two-run single that scored Kevin Kiermaier and Randy Arozarena. The win forces a Game 5, but the Rays face a daunting task: they must win three straight against a Dodgers team that has outscored them 29-19 in the series.
