Follow live: Rays, Guardians face off in ALCS Game 4

Only the American League Championship Series remains -- and fans had to wait an extra day for Game 4. After the Milwaukee Brewers swept the reigning champion Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4 of the National League Championship Series, it's just the Cleveland Guardians and Tampa Bay Rays left playing for the chance to face Milwaukee in the World Series. Game 4, originally scheduled for Friday night, will now be played Saturday due to rain in Cleveland -- with Game 5 to follow Sunday (which was originally a travel day). Cleveland took a 2-1 lead in the ALCS with a win in Game 3 in front of its home crowd at Progressive Field. Now, the Guardians will look to add to that lead. Will they continue their roll and move one win from punching their ticket to the Fall Classic? Or will the Rays even the series again? Stay tuned for lineups, game action and postgame analysis from ALCS Game 4.
