"As the clubs head back to Toronto, the Blue Jays are up 3-2 and need just one more win to secure their first World Series championship in more than 30 years, while the Dodgers will need to win both games if they're going to successfully defend their title from last year. Right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto (2.49 ERA) is set to take the mound for L.A. tonight as he goes for his third consecutive complete game this postseason."
"Those sterling outings lowered his ERA this postseason to just 1.57 across four starts, though his three runs surrendered to the Phillies across four innings in the NLDS show he's not invulnerable. Yamamoto's opponent tonight will be Blue Jays veteran Kevin Gausman (3.59 ERA), who has a 2.55 ERA this postseason but did take the loss when he last matched up against Yamamoto in Game 2."
Game 6 is scheduled for this evening and Game 7 for tomorrow if necessary. The Blue Jays lead the series 3-2 and need one win to capture their first World Series championship in over 30 years. The Dodgers must win both remaining games to successfully defend their title from last year. Right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto (2.49 ERA) is starting for L.A., aiming for a third consecutive complete game this postseason. Kevin Gausman (3.59 ERA) will oppose him. Neither team has announced Game 7 starters, though Tyler Glasnow and Max Scherzer are candidates and Shohei Ohtani could be available in relief. After an offseason with many openings, only a few managerial vacancies remain, and the Padres have narrowed their search to a small group of finalists.
