The Story in 60 Seconds

Dustin May has served as a bulk reliever for the Milwaukee Brewers during their postseason run against the San Diego Padres and Los Angeles Dodgers. While Milwaukee expected May to be a traditional starter when acquiring him, his current playoff role involves pitching multiple innings until his effectiveness wanes. Across both series, he pitched three innings in each appearance, including recovering from a rough frame against the Dodgers to finish with two scoreless innings.

Baseball Now suggests May remains a viable option to pitch multiple innings or potentially start in Game 4 of the World Series. The outlet argues that if Milwaukee turns to May in Game 4, he could potentially surprise observers by completing up to five innings.
