ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Jackson Chourio and Brice Turang sparked Milwaukee's eight-run fifth inning, and the Brewers routed the Tampa Bay Rays 10-1 on Monday night to move within one victory of their first World Series title.

Rookie left-hander Robert Gasser pitched one-hit ball and faced the minimum through six innings as Milwaukee rolled to a 3-0 lead in the Series. Game 4 is Tuesday night at Tropicana Field, where many Brewers fans showed up Monday and cheered from behind the visitors' dugout.

Gasser allowed a line-drive single to Yandy DĂ­az leading off the bottom of the first and then retired 14 straight before Victor Mesa Jr. walked to start Tampa Bay's sixth. Gasser became the first left-hander to face the minimum 18 batters through six innings of a World Series game since Sandy Koufax did it for the Dodgers in 1965.

Chourio went 4-for-5, William Contreras was 3 for 5 and Milwaukee racked up 16 hits off "Fastball Freddy" Peralta and five relievers to win its eighth straight postseason game and fourth in a row on the road.
