World Series 2020 Game 2 Highlights Tampa Bay Rays vs Los Angeles Dodgers

In a head-spinning span of four batters Wednesday night, Blake Snell had gone from no-no to no-go. The Dodgers, who had been silent for 4 2/3 innings, suddenly had two runs on the board and the tying run at the plate in the fifth inning of Game 2 of the World Series. So Rays manager Kevin Cash expelled Snell and turned to the bullpen crew affectionately known as “The Stable.” On a night when the Rays enjoyed a two-homer awakening from Brandon Lowe and evened up the best-of-seven World Series with a 6-4 win at Globe Life Field, having a more “Stable” pitching plan than their opponent made the biggest difference of all. Tampa Bay got the big outs late, whereas Los Angeles struggled to get any outs early. If the small-budget Rays had an advantage on the daunting Dodgers going into this Series, it rested in, well, rest. Both League Championship Series went the distance -- an exhausting seven games in seven days. But the Rays clinched their pennant on Saturday night in San Diego, the Dodgers on Sunday night in Arlington.
