Tampa Bay Win Brings Series to 2-2
The Tampa Bay Rays knotted up the Championship Series at Tropicana Field, thanks in large part to starter Keishaun Nikolic. Nikolic quieted the Baltimore Orioles, enabling Tampa Bay to grab the 4-0 win and move into a 2-2 tie in the best-of-7 series.

The game could have flipped with one out in the top of the fifth. But Keishaun Nikolic made what his manager later called "an A-plus pitch." With runners on 1st and 2nd and Baltimore trailing 3-0, Nikolic threw a sinker to Phil Tennant, who grounded out.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg.
