Brewers Set Jacob Misiorowski as Game 5 Starter After Tough Loss to Rays

The Milwaukee Brewers will attempt to clinch the World Series in Game 5 against the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday night at Tropicana Field, following a dramatic 4-3 loss in 12 innings on Tuesday.

Milwaukee initially took the lead with a solo home run from Cooper Pratt in the 12th inning, but Tampa Bay's Ben Williamson responded with a game-winning RBI single. Despite the setback, the Brewers maintain a 3-1 series lead.

After the loss, Brewers manager Pat Murphy confirmed that Jacob Misiorowski, a National League Cy Young candidate, will start Game 5. Misiorowski previously pitched in Game 1, allowing one run over five innings. He has a strong season record of 16-5 with a 1.80 ERA and has performed well in the postseason.
