Brett Phillips was the hero in Game 4 for the Tampa Bay Rays.
With two on and two out, Phillips came through off Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen, smacking a game-winning single that scored two runs. Kevin Kiermaier came around to score easily and Randy Arozarena tried to test Chris Taylor's arm after Taylor bobbled the ball in right-center field.

But Dodgers catcher Will Smith missed the relay throw from Max Muncy and Arozarena, who had stumbled and fallen on his way to the plate and was dead to rights, managed to get up and score the game-winning run in one of the wildest World Series game finishes ever.
Tampa Bay won the game 8-7 and tied the World Series at two games apiece.
From the third to the eighth inning, both teams swapped scores.
