What happened: Tampa Bay Rays ace Drew Rasmussen draws the Game 2 assignment against the franchise that traded him in 2021. The game has not started yet, with the score at Tampa Bay Rays 0, Milwaukee Brewers 0.

Why it matters: Tampa Bay looks to even the World Series after dropping the opener, leaning on an ace who delivered a scoreless postseason outing earlier this October.

What to watch: First pitch in Game 2 determines whether the Rays level the fall classic against Milwaukee.
