Pratt's homer puts Brewers on brink
The 22-year-old collected four hits in the contest, becoming the first player that age to reach that total in a potential clincher.
Rays storm back in bottom half
An errant throw by Joey Ortiz opened the bottom of the 12th and allowed the first five Rays batters to reach base. Liam Hicks, Jonny DeLuca and Chandler Simpson delivered consecutive hits that tied the score and loaded the bases before Ben Williamson's chopper over the first baseman produced the winning run.
Tough breaks and resilience
Shane Drohan entered after the error and could not close the door. The Brewers had produced 12 of the night's 13 hardest-hit balls, with nine exceeding 102 mph yet resulting in outs. They had won 10 of their first 11 October games and owned an 18-game streak when leading at any point before Tuesday's result.
Series returns to Game 5
The loss ended Milwaukee's first postseason defeat in 21 days.
