A Spanish-language broadcast will also be available on UniMas, while a Spanish radio broadcast will be available on Univision’s TUDN Radio.
The series currently stands at 1-1 after the Rays tied things up in Game 2 with a 3-1 win at Tropicana Field. The Guardians came from behind with a 7-3 win in the series opener.
“It’s going to be a challenging place to play,” Rays Manager Kevin Cash said about Cleveland’s Progressive Field. “We played there not too long ago in the postseason. That’s as good an atmosphere as you’re going to see. They’ve got a great fan base that’s going to be behind their team. I’d like to think we can carry our momentum into there and just play good baseball for Game 3.”
“Obviously we would have loved to have taken [Game 2],” Guardians Manager Stephen Vogt said. “But, going home 1-1, to go have three games in front of our fans in Cleveland, we feel really good about that. And we’re excited to get it going.”
Have the Rays ever won a World Series?
Whichever team wins the ALCS will go on to represent the American League in the World Series. The Rays have never won a World Series but have played in two (2008, 2020) and lost. The Guardians haven’t won a World Series in 77 seasons, since 1948 — the longest World Series drought in MLB.
