It is official, the World Series matchup is set between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Milwaukee Brewers. This came off the back of a thumping 7-3 win in Game 6 of the ALCS for Tampa Bay as they took care of the Cleveland Guardians in six games.
Junior Caminero finally got his first home run of the postseason in a crucial moment during the victory. He crushed a two-run shot off the left-field foul pole in the seventh inning to give the Tampa Bay Rays a 5-1 lead. His celebration was full of passion, which some have criticised, but not Jeff Passan.

Excessive celebrations are at frowned upon at times within the MLB, there are a lot of unwritten rules in baseball. Naturally, Caminero’s massive display of emotion after crushing the homer that likely sealed the game was something some fans and former players didn’t like.
Amid the criticism from the likes of Jeff Frye, Jeff Passan has also posted. He voiced his support for Caminero’s readiness for the World Series and does not seem to mind the celebration.
“This is how you celebrate a home run in a game that could send you to the World Series. Junior Caminero is ready,” the reporter said in an X post. It is important to not forget the context in which the Rays star celebrated the way he did.
The Rays will now face off against the dominant Milwaukee Brewers upon their return to the World Series after 2020. In this, they will need all of Caminero’s explosiveness, and fans will be hoping that getting a home run in the series-clincher is a sign of him finding form at just the right time.
