Nick Martinez Delivers Key Relief Effort to Keep Rays' Season Alive
Pitching on three days' rest, Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Nick Martinez pitched two crucial relief innings in Game 4 of the World Series to help defeat the Milwaukee Brewers 4-3 in 12 innings. Martinez, originally slated as Tampa Bay's Game 5 starter, was pressed into early duty out of the bullpen to stave off elimination, helping preserve the Rays' pitching staff in a critical postseason victory.
