Summary
Freddy Peralta sent Tampa Bay to the World Series with 5 1/3 innings of one-run ball, earning ALCS MVP after helping close out Cleveland 7-3 in Game 6.
Cleveland cut it to 5-3 by loading the bases in the eighth, but Kevin Kelly escaped with a strikeout of Brayan Rocchio before Yandy Díaz answered with a two-run homer.
Tampa Bay clinched its third World Series berth and will open Friday in Milwaukee, where either the Rays or Brewers will win the first championship in franchise history.
