Dodgers 7-6 Yankees, top 8th

Two down and runners at the corners for Freddie Freeman, who can give LA some insurance with a knock here.

RUN! Dodgers 7-6 Yankees, top 8th

The call is confirmed! Now Betts comes to the plate!

He skies the very first ball to centerfield and that also is going to be deep enough! Two straight sacrifice flies give LA a late lead!

Can you believe this?

RUN! Dodgers 6-6 Yankees, top 8th

Lux hits a fly ball to center – it’s deep enough to score the tying run! LA have leveled in the eighth!

And now it’s runners at the corners, and it’s guess who – Ohtani!

But wait, hang on! The umpire is calling catchers interference on the first pitch! That puts Ohtani at first! Are you kidding me?!

NY are going to challenge this, but if it stands, its a total disaster for NY.

Full count! Wow!

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 8th

Check swing. Did he go? Yes he did! It’s 2-2!

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 8th

Ball in the dirt – Lux ahead 2-1.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 8th

Here we go! Weaver v Lux in a season defining spot! Bases full, Yanks up a run, nobody out!

How will it end?

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 8th

OK, Boone comes to get Kahnle, which was a bad selection to begin with. Luke Weaver will come in for the third straight game to do some heavy, heavy lifting. The good news for New York fans? Weaver may be crazy enough to not give a damn about the situation he’s just been dropped in.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 8th

Rizzo creeps in at first base for a bunt that’s not going to happen. No idea what he is thinkng. But it’s 3-1!

And now it’s ball four!

Bases loaded, nobody out!

If Boone doesn’t get Kahnle now he’s crazy.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 8th

Meeting at the mound…it’s quiet in the Bronx. You can see this coming a mile away, and it’s not good for Yankees fans.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 8th

And Hernandez singles to left! Yup! The changeup thing against the Dodgers? I’m a skeptic.

And then Edman has a broken bat infield hit!

See what I’m saying?

Will Smith is up, and again, he is due!!

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 8th

Tommy Kahnle is in for New York, which is scary for me if I’m a Yankees fan. He faces Kike Hernandez.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, bottom 7th

Torres grounds out to third. Inning over. To the eighth!

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, bottom 7th

Verdugo watches a sweeper on the corner – strike three. Two down. Here is Torres.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, bottom 7th

Treinen is back out for the eighth and strikes out Wells. One down for Verdugo.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Muncy is stunned by the sweeper – strike three! LA leave two runners as the Yankees take a tiny lead into the stretch!

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Full count! That just missed up and away!

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Muncy fouls off a pitch – it’s 1-2.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Five straight balls from Holmes. Then finally a strike. It’s 1-1.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Hernandez walks. So a pair of two-out runners for Max Muncy in a huge spot right here.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Now it’s 3-0.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Hernandez is ahead in the count, 2-0.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Cole walks Freeman and now here comes Aaron Boone to get Cole, an out short of seven innings. He wanted to stay in but he heads to the dugout and is saluted by the fans. He gave up five runs, though none were earned.

Clay Holmes comes in to try and get Hernandez for the third out.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Betts hits a come-backer to Cole who makes the stab! He throws to first for the out! Two down, and Freddie Freeman steps to the plate.

Cole on 105 pitches.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, top 7th

Cole is back out for more, which makes sense to me. He’s facing Ohtani, who is definitely not right. He grounds out to second for the first out.

Here’s Mookie Betts.

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, bottom 6th

The count is full to Volpe! The runners on first and second will run with the pitch. Treinen deals, and Volpe grounds to second – Lux has it, makes the throw to first, side retired!

But the Yankees regain the lead!

Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, bottom 6th

Rizzo walks. That’s Graterol’s third walk so Roberts has had enough of that nonsense and is bringing in his biggest gun to keep this game close. Closer Blake Treinen is on his way to the mound.

NY need to get more runs in an inning where three batters walk, I’m just going to make that extra clear.

RUN! Dodgers 5-6 Yankees, bottom 6th

Stanton hits a fly ball deep enough to center to score Soto, who tags at third to give the Yankees a slim lead. Chisholm aggressively tags up at first and barely makes it to second! So NY have a two out runner at scoring position for Rizzo, who is seeking to extend the Yankees lead.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 6th

Chisholm bounces to second – Lux tosses to Edman to get the force, but that’s it. So runners at the corners for Giancarlo Stanton, who bats with everyone in the ballpark on its feet.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 6th

Chisholm squares to bunt! It’s foul and now he’s down in the count 0-2!

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 6th

Judge walks as Graterol barely misses on the up and outside part of the zone. Two on, nobody out. Here’s Jazz Chisholm, who homered earlier, in a huge spot in this ballgame.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 6th

It’s 3-2 to Judge.

Soto walks. Yikes. Now Judge is coming up. Can he make up for that insane drop in center field in the fifth?

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 6th

Brusdar Graterol is in, so this should be fun. He starts off by throwing in the direction of Juan Soto, who is quickly up in the count 2-0.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, top 6th

Lux pops out, inning over. Cole is on 87 pitches but bounced back well that inning. I wouldn’t be so quick to take him out. It’s his last start of the season – go batter by batter in the seventh.

Oh, apparently we haven’t had a pitcher throw 100 pitches in the postseason in two years, some 27 games? Did I hear FOX TV in the US right? If so is totally pathetic.

Judge is coming up this inning for NY.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, top 6th

Cole reaches back and blows a fastball by Smith. Two down.

It’s up to Lux in the Dodger sixth.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, top 6th

Edman pops out to left. One down. Here’s Smith, who I continue to believe is due.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 5th

Torres pops out to left. Inning over!

New York can’t take advantage of Vesia, who eventually gets that all-important shut down inning.

What an inning. What does Cole have left?

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 5th

Vesia walks Verdugo, which is like walking a tree. It’s absolutely insane. So from two outs and nobody on to two outs and bases loaded. Will Torres re-energize this crowd?

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 5th

It’s 3-0 to Verdugo. Why? Throw him a strike. He can’t hit it!

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 5th

Wells is hit in the forearm! So he takes first, and this two-out action is not what LA needed. Can Alex Verdugo deliver? He almost always doesn’t.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 5th

Volpe pokes a ball through the hole between first and second, so NY have a two-out base runner for Austin Wells.

Dodgers 5-5 Yankees, bottom 5th

Rizzo lifts a fly ball to center – Hernandez is there to make the catch. Two outs. Here’s Volpe.
