Toronto Seeking to Prevail on the Road
Toronto took Game 1 on the strength of a nine-run sixth inning, but their bats were shut down in Game 2. The Blue Jays now travel on the road, hoping to steal home-field advantage back from the Dodgers. In Game 2, Toronto was limited to four hits with no player recording more than one in the contest. Alejandro Kirk drove in the lone run for the Blue Jays with a sacrifice fly in the third inning. The Blue Jays went one of four with runners in scoring position and left four men on base in the contest. Kevin Gausman (2-2) took the loss as he threw 6.2 innings, allowing three runs on four hits with no walks and six strikeouts, before departing. Max Scherzer got the ball for the Blue Jays in Game 3 Monday night.
On Monday, the Jays had plenty of chances to win, but it was a rough night for the bats aside from catcher Alejandro Kirk, who drove in three runs after hitting his second home run. Nathan Lukes, who hit a double, was the only other Toronto batter to go extra bases. The bullpen did their job, save for Seranthony Dominguez, who came in during the seventh inning and surrendered a solo home run to Shohei Otani, who tied the game at 5-5. That score would last until the 18th inning when Freddie Freeman delivered the game-winning home run against Brendon Little.
Shane Bieber takes the ball for his fourth postseason start of the year after making seven regular-season starts for the Blue Jays. He was 4-2 with a 3.57 ERA, a 1.017 WHIP, seven walks, and 37 strikeouts over 40.1 innings of work in the regular season. In the postseason, he has a 1-0 record with a 4.38 ERA, a 1.541 WHIP, three walks, and 15 strikeouts over 12.1 innings of work. Bieber earned the win in his last start, which came against the Mariners at home in Game 7 of the AL Championship Series on October 20. He threw 3.2 innings, allowing two runs on seven hits with one walk and five strikeouts, in an eventual 4-2 Blue Jays win. In his last three starts, Bieber has a 1-0 record with a 4.38 ERA, a 1.541 WHIP, three walks, and 15 strikeouts over 12.1 innings of work. Bieber didn’t factor in the decision in his lone career start against the Dodgers, which came with the Guardians on the road June 19, 2022. He threw 6.1 innings, allowing three runs (two earned) on seven hits with one walk and nine strikeouts in a 5-3 Guardians win. That leaves Bieber with no record, a 2.84 ERA, a 1.263 WHIP, one walk, and nine strikeouts over 6.1 innings in his one career start at Dodger Stadium.
Dodgers Trying to Take Control at Home
After seeing their bullpen struggle in the opening game of the World Series, Los Angeles didn’t have to lean on their relievers at all en route to squaring the series with a Game 2 win. The Dodgers now try to build momentum as they return home for Games 3, 4, and 5. In Game 2 on Saturday, Los Angeles finished with just six hits as Will Smith (run, three RBI) was the lone player with two. Smith (his first of the postseason) and Max Muncy (his second) each went deep in the seventh inning, breaking a 1-1 tie. Yoshinobu Yamamoto (3-1) earned the win as he tossed a complete game, allowing one run on four hits with no walks and eight strikeouts. He became the first pitcher to throw back-to-back complete games in the postseason since Curt Schilling threw three straight back in 2001. Tyler Glasnow took the ball for the Dodgers in Game 3 Monday night.
Shohei Ohtani gets the ball for his third start of the postseason after logging 14 regular-season starts on the bump for the Dodgers. In the regular season, he was 1-1 with a 2.87 ERA, a 1.043 WHIP, nine walks, and 62 strikeouts over 47 innings of work. During the postseason, Ohtani is 2-0 with a 2.25 ERA, a 0.75 WHIP, four walks and 19 strikeouts over 12 innings of work. Ohtani earned the win in his last start, which came against the Brewers in Game 4 of the NL Championship Series on October 17. He threw six scoreless innings, allowing two hits with three walks and 10 strikeouts in a 5-1 Dodgers win. In his last three starts, Ohtani is 2-0 with a 1.50 ERA, a 0.78 WHIP, four walks, and 27 strikeouts over 18 innings of work. Ohtani makes his fourth career start against the Blue Jays in this contest. He is 2-1 with a 3.32 ERA, a 0.842 WHIP, five walks, and 25 strikeouts over 19 innings of work against them. Ohtani is 1-0 with a 1.71 ERA, a 0.714 WHIP, four walks and 30 strikeouts over 21 innings of work in seven career starts at Dodger Stadium.
Blue Jays vs. Dodgers Pick
Moneyline Pick for Blue Jays vs. Dodgers
- Dodgers (-1.5) (4 units)
This is a matchup of a pair of pitchers that missed a big chunk of the season before taking the mound down the stretch for their teams. Bieber has been knocked around a bit, giving up 16 hits in 12.1 innings in the postseason. He was tagged for seven hits in just 3.2 innings of work in Game 7 against the Mariners in the AL Championship Series. Facing a Dodgers squad that finished the regular season second in the majors in runs per game is going to be a challenge. Toronto is a better offensive team at home than on the road, and Ohtani has pitched well in the postseason. Give the edge to the Dodgers in this contest.
Over/Under Pick for Blue Jays vs. Dodgers
- Under 8.5 (4 units)
Toronto has seen the over post a 95-75-5 mark in their 175 games on the year entering Sunday night. The Blue Jays are 3rd in the majors with 5.03 runs per game, and that number falls to 4.66 runs per game away from Rogers Centre. Toronto has an average total of 9.50 runs per game, but that number drops to 9.39 runs per game on the road. Los Angeles entered Sunday night having seen the under post an 86-79-9 mark in their 174 games on the season. The Dodgers are second in the majors, averaging 5.06 runs per game, which gives them an average total of 9.20 runs per contest. At home, Los Angeles averages 5.43 runs per game and has an average total of 9.72 runs per game this season. Ohtani has been lights out on the bump and the Dodgers' bats haven’t been as explosive as one would have expected given their talent. Take the under in this contest as a result.
