"Starter Clarke Schmidt, perhaps dealing with some World Series nerves, had little command, with just 37 of his 68 pitches being strikes. His lack of control was highlighted by the cutter that was placed on the other side of the zone where Jose Trevino was set up, resulting in Freddie Freeman's two-run home run."
"As they have mostly throughout this playoff run, the bullpen unit did their part again and prevented this game from becoming a laugher. Their night started early with Mark Leiter Jr. getting the final out of the third inning with the bases loaded."
"The offense may have been worse, with five hits and nothing doing on the scoreboard until the possible final out of the game. With the lack of fight yesterday, it felt like there was no worthy player to get recognition as the team now falls to 3-0."
