Travis Jankowski played a pivotal role in the Tampa Bay Rays' thrilling 3-2 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, culminating in an RBI single during the ninth inning. This marked a historic home game for the Rays, as they experienced weather delays for the first time in their franchise history. Jankowski, who joined the team after spring training stints with the Cubs and White Sox, also contributed with a sacrifice fly earlier in the game, helping Tampa Bay take a 2-1 lead.

The game was not without drama; after a rain delay, both teams' pitchers combined to retire 19 consecutive batters before the tumultuous ninth inning. Jankowski's performance, alongside key plays from rookie Kameron Misner, who scored two runs, proved essential. As Tampa Bay prepares for the series finale, they continue to impress despite playing at Steinbrenner Field due to damage at Tropicana Field from Hurricane Milton.
