The ALCS between the Tampa Bay Rays and Cleveland Guardians is now a best-of-three after the Rays' 7-3 Game 4 win evened the series at two games apiece. Tampa Bay's top hitters, including Jonathan Aranda and Yandy Díaz, produced six of their 11 hits and drove in six runs following a quiet start to the series, while Nick Martinez limited Cleveland to one run over 5⅓ innings. Guardians errors in the outfield and infield contributed to three unearned runs. Game 5 at Progressive Field features Drew Rasmussen on the mound for the Rays against a Cleveland starter still to be confirmed, with the series shifting to Tropicana Field for potential Games 6 and 7. Recent form, bullpen availability, and home-field dynamics in the remaining contests shape expectations for run totals from each club.
