位于佛罗里达州希尔斯伯勒县的 Tampa，坦帕湾光芒队总教练凯文·卡什（Kevin Cash）10月22日（周四）在 Milwaukee 宣布，10月23日（周五）晚的世界大赛第一场将由36岁老将右投尼克·马丁内斯（Nick Martinez）先发，对阵酿酒人王牌雅各布·米肖罗夫斯基（Jacob Misiorowski），而不是按正常轮休本可出战的球队王牌德鲁·拉斯穆森（Drew Rasmussen）。卡什解释，球队优先让拉斯穆森多休息一天：他在美联冠军赛第五场投了7局，季后赛三场先发共21局只失3分、自责分率1.29，送出23次三振。按目前安排，拉斯穆森预计投第二场，前酿酒人投手弗雷迪·佩拉尔塔（Freddy Peralta）投回到坦帕 Tropicana球场的第三场。马丁内斯今年2月以一年合同加盟光芒，常规赛投了全队最多的180局、自责分率3.10，并在美联冠军赛第四场先发5又1/3局只被敲2支安打失1分。卡什说：“尼克投球时，我们就赢。”两支球队都在争夺队史第一个世界大赛冠军；光芒将在 Tropicana球场为前两场客场比赛举办官方观赛派对，门票10美元起。
World Series Opens Friday; Rays Shuffle Rotation: Martinez Starts Game 1 as Ace Rasmussen Gets an Extra Day
TAMPA, Florida — Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash, in Tampa, Hillsborough County, Florida, announced in Milwaukee on Thursday, October 22 that 36-year-old veteran right-hander Nick Martinez will start Game 1 of the World Series on Friday night, October 23 against Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski, rather than team ace Drew Rasmussen, who could have pitched on normal rest. Cash explained the club preferred to give Rasmussen an extra day of rest: he threw 7 innings in ALCS Game 5, and over three postseason starts has allowed only 3 runs in 21 innings, a 1.29 ERA with 23 strikeouts. Under the current plan, Rasmussen starts Game 2 and former Brewer Freddy Peralta starts Game 3, back at Tropicana Field. Martinez joined the Rays in February on a one-year deal, threw a team-high 180 innings in the regular season with a 3.10 ERA, and started ALCS Game 4, allowing 1 run on 2 hits over 5⅓ innings. 'When Nick pitches, we win,' Cash said. Both clubs are chasing their first World Series championship; the Rays will host official watch parties at Tropicana Field for the first two road games, with tickets starting at $10.
