Tampa Bay evened the ALCS at two games each with a 7-3 Game 4 win in Cleveland, ensuring the series will last at least six games.
Jonathan Aranda drove the comeback, tying the game in the third and then delivering a two-run hit in the seventh after Junior Caminero’s sixth-inning RBI double put the Rays ahead 2-1.
Yandy Diaz added late separation with a two-run homer in the ninth, while closer Bryan Baker erased Cleveland’s last chance with a double play and strikeout after a leadoff single.
Cleveland scored first on Chase DeLauter’s RBI single in the opening inning but managed little offense afterward and could not capitalize when it cut the deficit in the seventh.
Game 5 is Sunday after a weather postponement pushed the schedule back, leaving no more off days before the series resumes its normal Game 6 date Monday.
