World series 2 game score
With one out in the bottom of the fourth, Yankees manager Aaron Boone is making a pitching change. Jake Cousins has taken over for Carlos Rodón after Rodón surrendered six hits and four runs over 3.1 innings of work.
9:57 p.m.: Impressive showing thus far for Yamamoto, who swept aside two of the best bats in baseball with relative ease. Forced Soto to ground out weakly before whiffing Judge again, this time with the splitter. He’s given up just one hit in six innings of work.
In his first Major League seasons, Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto had a tendency to get better as a game went along. So, it seemed important that the Yankees get to him early. Instead, they stranded a leadoff walk in the first inning and went their first turn through the order without a hit. Soto homered in the third, and Yamamoto retired the next 11 in a row. The Yankees needed to score early, but they had only one hit through the first eight innings. Their ninth inning was exciting, but it was too little, too late.
Gary D: “The Dodgers have a top four that you can’t pitch around. And they have a long lineup, too. Their relief staff is deep enough so that if one pitcher isn’t having a good night they can bring in four or five other good pitchers. So if their starters pitch well, as they’ve done so far, it’s really tough to beat them. Maybe one or two games, sure, but four is just not too likely.”
Dodgers outfielder Tommy Edman just hit a solo home run off Carlos Rodón into the left-field stands. The Yankees starter rebounded with no further damage and made a nice play off the mound to end the inning.
Who won world series game last night
“The banning to tonight’s game was kind of expected, but the fact my little brother and his friends can’t use our season tickets tonight has really pissed me off,” he said in a text message to NBC News. “It’s not like they can go to the next game.”
After taking advantage of three miscues to erase a five-run, fifth-inning deficit during one of the most memorable midgame meltdowns in baseball history, the Dodgers used eighth-inning sacrifice flies from Gavin Lux and Mookie Betts to beat New York 7-6 on Wednesday night.
While Yankees fans enjoyed the effort, they also held their breaths remembering last year when Judge ran through the right field fence at Dodger Stadium. That herculean effort injured his right foot and derailed the team’s season.
11:36 p.m. — Shockingly, Kiké takes a pitch before Weaver disengages to pick Taylor off thrice, eliciting a disengagement violation. Taylor takes second and Kiké walks on a 3-1 count with one out on the board.
