MILWAUKEE - The Milwaukee Brewers claimed a 3-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 1 of the World Series on Friday night, The Guardian reported. The Guardian's report is credited to agencies in the listing available for this story.
According to The Guardian, Christian Yelich tripled to drive in a run and then scored in the first inning. The newspaper's headline also refers to a 44-year wait, a detail that the available summary does not explain.
The Guardian also reported that Misiorowski and Trevor Megill held off a late Rays fightback. Megill struck out Jonny DeLuca with runners on second and third to escape a ninth-inning jam, the report said. The summary cuts off partway through its account of DeLuca's at-bat, so the rest of that sequence is not available.
CBS News reported before the game that the Brewers were set to host the Rays in Milwaukee on Friday night in Game 1. Its video segment featured Levi Weaver, a staff writer for the Athletic, discussing the matchup, but the summary does not describe what he said.
The two sources agree on the teams, the host city, and the Friday night timing of the opener. CBS News described the game as upcoming, while The Guardian reported the final result. Neither summary gives attendance, a full box score, or broadcast details, so those points are not included in this account.
