The Toronto Blue Jays<\/a> and Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> are facing off in Game 5 as Dodger Stadium hosts World Series baseball for the final time in 2025. <\/strong>
With the Series tied 2-2, tonight determines who will head to Toronto one game away from becoming world champions.
Davis Schneider<\/a> and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit back-to-back home runs off of Blake Snell<\/a> to open the game, before Kik\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez responded with a solo shot of his own in the third inning to get L.A. on the board. Toronto has since extended its lead to 6-1 with a run in the fourth, two in the seventh and another in the eighth.
Blue Jays starter Trey Yesavage<\/a>, 22, broke the MLB<\/a> record for most strikeouts by a rookie in a World Series game with 12.
▶️ Even Freddie Freeman<\/strong> has been off at the plate tonight, striking out again on a slider below the zone. Los Angeles is down to its final out. | Bot 9th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>

▶️ A rough series for Mookie Betts<\/strong> continues, meagerly flying out to left for the first out. | Bot 9th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>
▶️ Despite it not being a save opportunity, Jeff Hoffman<\/strong> is now in the game for Toronto. Will Smith <\/strong>greets him with a sharp single to left. | Bot 9th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>
▶️ That's a 1-2-3 inning for Blake Treinen<\/strong>, getting Alejandro Kirk<\/strong> to ground out to first on an awkward swing. | Mid 9th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>
▶️ Treinen<\/strong> retires Bichette<\/strong> as well, getting the Blue Jays designated hitter to roll out to second. Two away. | Top 9th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>
The Blue Jays lead 6-1 and are three outs away from taking a 3-2 lead back to Toronto.
In the previous 19 World Series that were tied at 2-2, when the road team won Game 5, it went on to win 15 of those 19 World Series.
(This doesn't count the 2020 bubble year.)

▶️ Blake Treinen<\/strong> is on the mound for Los Angeles now. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. <\/strong>hits a chopper back to him and Treinen flips to first for the out. | Top 9th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>
▶️ Ohtani<\/strong> jumps on the first pitch and smokes a grounder to first that Guerrero<\/strong> smothers before slapping the bag with his hand as this game heads to the ninth. | End 8th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>
You know a game is over when the announcers shift the focus to a guy in the stands and start filling time with golf stories.
▶️ Alex Call <\/strong>works a two-out walk, passing the baton to Shohei Ohtani<\/strong>. | Bot 8th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>
▶️ Kik\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez<\/strong> strikes out swinging on three pitches, chasing a sweeper off the plate. | Bot 8th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>

Everything we said Trey Yesavage<\/strong> needed to do Game 1 and he didn\u2019t do, he did tonight. Cool as a cat from the first hitter on. He was locked. Delivery was solid all game. Hardly pitched out of the stretch. Had hitters off-balanced all game.
He didn\u2019t give an inch.
▶️ Seranthony Dom\u00ednguez <\/strong>is now on the bump for Toronto, quickly getting Max Muncy<\/strong> to ground out to first. | Bot 8th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>
You can practically hear Alex Call<\/strong> saying \u201cRats!\u201d<\/em> in this photo after striking out in the fifth inning.
On Alan Porter, who is home plate umpire tonight \u2026<\/em>
It\u2019s funny. When you are a crew chief and have fill in umpires coming up and down throughout the season, you can get a feel for a guy\u2019s talent and or potential.
I\u2019ve had guys that at first you weren\u2019t quite sure, but they grew into the role as they got more comfortable and more confident.
And you have guys at times that come up and you would think they\u2019ve been there for years\/
Alan was one of those. Not cocky, just good.
▶️ With Myles Straw<\/strong> at the plate, Isiah Kiner-Falefa <\/strong>swipes second. A few pitches later, Straw pops out to second to end the Jays half on the inning. | Mid 8th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong>

For those keeping score at home, the Blue Jays are six outs from having the Dodgers on the brink of elimination for the first time since … Game 4 of the NLDS last year.
John Schneider not being afraid to send Isiah Kiner-Falefa<\/strong> there first pitch is that constant pressure that wears teams down. Giving away nothing. It\u2019s mentally exhausting for an opponent, and it\u2019s really showing on the Dodgers tonight.
It\u2019s tough to beat a team when you feel like you have to almost be perfect every game.
▶️ Andr\u00e9s Gim\u00e9nez <\/strong>lofts an easy flyball to Alex Call<\/strong> for the second out. | Top 8th Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 1<\/strong><\/p>\n
