Rays star Cam Booser shares blunt take after nightmarish World Series performance: 'Worst feeling'
Key Points:
- Tampa Bay Rays reliever Cam Booser struggled in Game 3 of the World Series, allowing four runs during a Brewers rally that scored eight runs with two outs in an inning—an MLB World Series first.
- Booser entered the game with bases loaded and two outs in the fifth inning but gave up consecutive hits, including a key single that slipped past the shortstop and multiple RBI hits, contributing to a 10-1 loss.
- Rays shortstop Taylor Walls acknowledged a crucial defensive misplay that was a turning point in the game, while manager Kevin Cash emphasized the team's determination despite trailing 3-0 in the series.
- Historically, teams down 3-0 in a World Series rarely come back, with only one team—the 2004 Red Sox—overcoming such a deficit in any best-of-seven postseason series.
- The Rays aim to extend their season in Game 4 against the Brewers on Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET on FOX, facing long odds to mount a comeback after falling behind in the series.
