• Tampa Bay Rays 3-1 Cleveland Guardians

• Rays lead best of seven series 3-2

• Drew Rasmussen shines over seven innings

Tampa Bay’s Jonny DeLuca figured it was going to be a quiet day for the outfielders with Drew Rasmussen on the mound for Game 5 of the AL Championship Series against the Cleveland Guardians.

With the way Rasmussen quieted the Guardians’ offense on Sunday, that made for a perfect evening.

• Rays defeat Guardians 7-3 to level ALCS at 2-2

• Díaz seals victory with ninth-inning home run

• Tampa Bay and Cleveland meet again on Sunday

Jonathan Aranda’s single led to two runs in the seventh inning when the ball got by right fielder Chase DeLauter, Nick Martinez pitched five and one-third innings for his first postseason win and the Tampa Bay Rays defeated the Cleveland Guardians 7-3 on Saturday night to even the AL Championship Series at 2-2.

Game 5 of the best-of-seven matchup is Sunday in Cleveland before the series shifts back to St Petersburg, Florida, on Monday. There is no off day for travel after Friday’s game was postponed by rain.
