Dodgers Even World Series with 5-1 Win

The 2025 World Series is tied 1-1 after the Los Angeles Dodgers evened the Fall Classic with a 5-1 victory in Game 2, answering Toronto’s 11-4 Game 1 win that featured a nine-run sixth and Addison Barger's pinch-hit grand slam — the first in World Series history. Yoshinobu Yamamoto threw a complete game to lead the Dodgers in Game 2. Games 3–4 shift to Dodger Stadium, with Tyler Glasnow scheduled to face Max Scherzer in Game 3 and Shohei Ohtani scheduled to start Game 4 against Shane Bieber. Ohtani has been exceptional this postseason both at the plate and on the mound, while questions remain about the Dodgers’ bullpen after it was exposed in Game 1.
