Rays Force Game 5 at the Trop

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker recap the Tampa Bay Rays' 4-3 walk-off win in Game 4 of the World Series to avoid a sweep and force a Game 5 against the Milwaukee Brewers. Can the Rays actually stage a full comeback in the series without their big bats producing? They get into Pat Murphy's decision not to throw Jacob Misiorowski late in the game and save him for Game 5 tonight, the long relief options for the Rays looking shaky, and the Brewers simply looking like the team of destiny. Plus, they're joined by Sportsnet's Madison Shipman (11:39) who reacts live to the Drew Rasmussen starter choice for Game 5, the terrific play of Cooper Pratt as a rookie, and whether or not the Brewers can close the deal in Florida, Afterwards, they chat with Brewers special advisor and former MLB GM Thad Levine (35:50), who gets into his previous experiences being so close to a World Series win, what the ceilings for players like Jackson Chourio and Junior Caminero could be, and what former NL MVP Christian Yelich can still bring to the table.
