The Blue Jays struggled to find a rhythm against the Japanese starter, with Yamamoto posting a 1.02 ERA across 17 2/3 innings. He allowed just ten hits and two walks while striking out 15 and giving up just two earned runs. After throwing 96 pitches on Friday night in the Dodgers' win, manager Dave Roberts turned to his superstar late in Game 7, having him throw another 34 pitches in the eventual win.

Game 3's 18-inning contest was an emotional rollercoaster, regardless of your team affiliation. After both teams scored in the seventh to tie it 5-5, they went ten scoreless innings before Freddie Freeman's walk-off home run. The game featured 19 combined pitchers, setting a postseason record. Will Klein, the Dodgers' last reliever, threw a career-high four innings in his second career postseason outing after being added to the roster due to Alex Vesia's absence due to a family emergency. Securing Game 3 in a tied World Series significantly boosts championship odds.
