Brewers turn to Dustin May for possible World Series sweep
The Milwaukee Brewers can clinch the World Series with a win over the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 4.
The Brewers lead the series and are trying to sweep Tampa Bay for the franchise’s first championship.
Dustin May will start for Milwaukee, but the team plans to use a bullpen game, bringing in relievers after him.
May had a 4.70 ERA during the regular season and a 5.63 ERA in eight postseason innings.
Griffin Jax is set to start for Tampa Bay; his last outing was in the American League Championship Series on October 15.
The Brewers’ relievers are well rested after a 10-1 win in Game 3, and the team may use different pitchers to match up against the Rays’ batters.
A win would complete Milwaukee’s sweep and make it the first team since 1985 to sweep both the league championship series and the World Series.
