Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed just 1 run in 6.1 innings and Freddie Freeman and Teoscar Hernandez smacked back-to-back home runs in the bottom of the 3rd inning as the Dodgers won Game 2 of the World Series Saturday Night by the score of 4-2. Carlos Rodon allowed all four runs in just 3.1 innings and Aaron Judge struck out three times as the Series shifts to the Bronx with Los Angeles leading two games to none. They are now prohibitive favorites (-450) to win the Series against New York (+340).
NLCS MVP Tommy Edman started the Dodgers’ scoring with his 2nd home run of the postseason in the bottom of the 2nd. Juan Soto hit his 4th home run of the playoffs and Giancarlo Stanton drove in his 14th run of the playoffs to account for the Yankees’ two runs Saturday Night.
Clarke Schmidt takes the mound in what is just short of a must-win for the Yankees. The Dodgers will send Walker Buehler to the mound as they try to put a stranglehold on the Series.
