The Brewers tipped down the rays 8-2 in a quirky early April Getaway Day Game.

Tampa Bay leaned on Drew Rasmussen for a solid start after a tough loss the night before,

while NoWalky rode out Young Gunn Jacob Missyorowski.

Both pictures kept things tight early, with no runs through the first inning and quickouts

all around.

NoWalky came a scary moment in the second when a 100-mile-per-hour foul tip smashed into

umpire CB Bucknor's mask, knocking him out of the game.

Chad Fairchild stepped in, dropping them to a 3-man crew, but play resumed without much

hitch.

Nick Fortes is single to extend the frame for the rays, but they strained at runners.

Richie Polatios got blunt to open the third, setting up Yandy Diaz to crush a two-run

homer to right, putting Tampa up to nothing.

NoWalky fired right back in their half on Breast-Turong solo shot, nodding it at two

a piece amid some rays' errors on the infield.

Fans held their breath through a pitcher's duel that saw Rasmussen fan 8-5 innings.

The game stayed scoreless into the late innings, with Missyorowski matching Rasmussen through

6 before Bullpen's took over.

Tampa loaded the bases in the top of the ninth, but couldn't break through, paving the

way from a walkie-to-explode for six runs in the bottom half, and sealed the blowout.

Rasmussen's groove in that wild-umped delay made headlines, but the Brewer's late-served

hands the raise a series loss before their road trip kicks off.
