The Tampa Bay Rays advanced to the World Series with a 7-3 victory over the Cleveland Guardians in Game 6 of the American League Championship Series on Monday in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Junior Caminero and Yandy Díaz each hit a two-run homer as Tampa Bay won its third consecutive game to take the series 4-2. The Rays will visit the Milwaukee Brewers for Game 1 of the World Series on Friday.
Richie Palacios opened the scoring with a two-run double in the second inning, and Jonny DeLuca’s sacrifice fly extended Tampa Bay’s lead to 3-0 in the third. Caminero later hit his first career postseason home run.
Rays starter Freddy Peralta allowed one run on five hits and three walks over 5⅓ innings. He finished the ALCS with a 2-0 record and one run allowed in 12 innings, earning series MVP honors.
Cleveland scored on Nathaniel Lowe’s RBI single in the sixth, then cut the deficit to 5-3 in the eighth when Ian Seymour issued a bases-loaded walk to Patrick Bailey and hit Angel Martinez with a pitch. Kevin Kelly struck out Brayan Rocchio to end that threat before Díaz restored the four-run margin with his eighth-inning homer. Bryan Baker retired Cleveland in order in the ninth.
The Rays previously reached the World Series in 2008 and 2020, losing both times.
