"The Dodgers came into Dodger Stadium riding a Game 2 win, and looked to capitalize on their momentum in their first home game of the World Series. They took an early 2-0 lead through home runs from Teoscar Hernandez and Shohei Ohtani, but the Blue Jays struck back with a four-run fourth inning. The Blue Jays would stay ahead until the bottom of the fifth inning, when an RBI double from Ohtani and a single from Freddie Freeman leveled the game at four."
"The game continued into extra innings, but neither team could break the tie through 14 innings. With their bullpen nearly exhausted, the Dodgers sent in right-hander Will Klein, who hadn't been on the Dodgers' postseason roster until the World Series. Klein etched his name into Dodgers history in Game 3, throwing four innings - the longest of his MLB career - and allowing just one hit. Klein came to the Dodgers on waivers in 2025, and last pitched for the Oakland Athletics in 2024. He had an 11.05 ERA that season."
Los Angeles Dodgers won an 18-inning Game 3 of the World Series on a Freddie Freeman walk-off home run. The Dodgers took an early 2-0 lead on homers by Teoscar Hernandez and Shohei Ohtani, but Toronto Blue Jays scored four runs in the fourth and led into the fifth. Ohtani produced an RBI double and Freeman added a single to tie the game at four. Bo Bichette gave Toronto a 5-4 lead in the seventh, and Ohtani tied it with a solo homer. Will Klein threw four innings of relief, allowing one hit, and the game reached the 18th inning, tying the longest World Series game record.
