#game-3

There were almost too many heroes to count during the Los Angeles Dodgers playoff run in 2025, and among them was Clayton Kershaw playing in his final season. The 2025 World Series in particular saw each player on the 26-man roster make an important contribution in some form or another during the seven games against the Toronto Blue Jays. Each one was important to the final outcome and the series could have ended without them.

With a two-run rally fueled by professional hitting, aggressive baserunning and a little cat-and-mouse game with the pitch clock, the Dodgers broke an early tie and took a lead they wouldn't relinquish, moving to the doorstep of the World Series with a 3-1 defeat of the Brewers in Game 3 of the NLCS. The decisive rally followed five innings of frustration.

The Oilers faced a dominant performance from the Panthers in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final, ending 6-1, leading to post-game chaos.

The Capitals struggled to maintain control against the Canadiens, out-attempted significantly, and also lost their starting goalie, raising concerns about the team's performance.
