The Dodgers are now only one victory away from winning the World Series for the first time since 2020.
Since his days with the Atlanta Braves during their 2021 triumph, Freeman has now scored in five consecutive World Series games. His spectacular grand slam in the bottom of the 10th inning in Game 1 gave him the victory, and he followed it up with a single shot in Game 2.
In Game 3, Freeman wasted no time in putting Los Angeles ahead 2-0 early on by taking advantage of a botched location by Yankees starter Clarke Schmidt and hitting it into the right field seats for a two-run homer with two outs.
Walker Buehler, the starter for the Dodgers, quiet the boisterous Bronx crowd with five innings of two-hit ball and five strikeouts.
As the world series moves to the Bronx, the Yankees are under tremendous pressure.
Although he didn’t return for the sixth inning, he was cruising when his team scored another run in the top of the third inning with a Mookie Betts sawed-off single that scored Tommy Edman. Both of those singles also occurred in the fifth inning.
