More than 30,000 title-starved Brewers fans turned out to watch a baseball game played 1,200 miles away, but they will have to wait at least one more day to see their dream fulfilled.

The visiting Milwaukee Brewers were ​on the brink of the first World Series title in franchise history when the Tampa Bay ‌Rays rallied for two runs in the bottom of the 12th inning to avoid a sweep in Game 4 and stay alive with a 4-3 victory Tuesday night in St. Petersburg, Florida.
