Rays vs Brewers, Friday, Oct 23, 2026 at 8:00 pm ET | Miller Park, Milwaukee, WI | FOX

We’ve seen these teams both put together excellent regular seasons, and now great postseason runs. The Rays won 98 games in the regular season, then beat the Yankees in three games and the Guardians in six. The Brewers were able to win 103 games, the most in baseball, and then beat the Padres in four games before sweeping the Dodgers. 

Let’s take a look at the likely starting lineups for each team. 

Tampa Bay Rays: 

1. Yandy Diaz, DH
2. Jonathan Aranda, 1B
3. Liam Hicks, C
4. Junior Caminero, 3B
5. Chandler Simpson, LF
6. Victor Mesa Jr., RF
7. Jonny DeLuca, CF
8. Richie Palacios, 2B

Milwaukee Brewers: 

1. Jackson Chourio, LF

7. Cooper Pratt, SS
8. Sam Frelick, RF
9. David Hamilton, 3B

The pitching matchup tonight features two of the best pitchers in the league. The Rays have Nick Martinez, more of a finesse pitcher, while the Brewers have Jacob Misiorowski, a power pitcher who will try to overpower hitters.
