CLEVELAND -- Back and forth goes the ALCS, which is now a best-of-three series after the Rays tied it up with a 7-3 win Saturday night at Progressive Field.

After Friday’s rainout pushed Game 4 back a day, the Rays had an extra 24 hours to chew on their series deficit, an unexpected spot for the top team in the American League. With Saturday’s win, though, the Rays guarantee that this series will shift back to Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg for Game 6 on Monday.

The big three atop the Rays’ lineup have awoken, too, and there’s nothing scarier for the Guardians. Jonathan Aranda drove in a pair and Yandy Díaz put the game on ice in the ninth with a two-run shot to the opposite field, but it all started with Junior Caminero, who has finally announced his arrival in the ALCS.

Caminero’s RBI double into the left-field corner in the sixth inning was another rocket, 110.2 mph off his bat and over the head of a leaping José Ramírez. It felt like Caminero was finally due after he launched a deep fly ball to the base of the wall in center field earlier in the game, which felt like a home run until the second it crashed into the glove of Petey Halpin, who looked just as surprised as the rest of us.

That fly ball from Caminero was the 265th batted ball at 110.0-110.9 mph and a 28-30 degree launch angle under Statcast, including the postseason. The other 264 were all home runs. What a cruel fate for Caminero, whose ball flew through the frigid air to the deepest corner of this massive outfield, but he was still due.

Standing on second base after driving the go-ahead run in the sixth, bundled in layers to fight the Cleveland cold, Caminero was brash and defiant. He stood atop the bag, furiously beating his chest with both fists as he howled back towards his own dugout. He’s the type of hitter who can change a game in an instant. He’s the type of player who can bring the Rays their first World Series.

The Guardians rallied in the seventh, including a Travis Bazzana home run and an RBI single from Brayan Rocchio, but they’d let the Rays build too much of a lead by then, including three runs in the top half of that same inning, featuring an RBI single off the bat of Jonathan Aranda that plated a second run thanks to an error.
