Betts hits a bouncer to second base. Torres throws to Volpe for an out at second base. A down and runner on the corners for Freddie Freeeman.

He also jumps to second place – can New York finish second? Torres throws to Volpe for the first time, but the first throw seems to be too late! The referee calls him out, but LA will challenge. If LA wins the challenge, Ohtani scores and it becomes a one-run game!

Gil goes against Edman, which is exactly what you can't do against this team. You can't accompany anyone at the back of the lineup if Ohtani and Co. are waiting at the top.

Boone comes out and grabs Gil, who looked good until he gave up a routine pop-up home run and a walk. Here comes Tim Hill, one of the best players on the Yankees team, facing Ohtani.

HOME RUN! Dodgers 3-5 Yankees, top 5

Smith hits a home run into the short porch in right field, which in LA is probably a shallow pop-up. But the Dodgers will do it! The lead is now only two!

Smith was totally due, but that's such cheap HR. Still, it could help him move forward.

Soto ends up in second place. Inning over.

So Knack, part of a bullpen game for LA designed to get the Dodgers through a game without using their best relievers, puts Torres on a 4-6-3 double play. That means the bases are empty for Juan Soto, which is just how an LA fan likes it.

This finally puts the Yankees in a position where they don't have to overcome a deficit for the first time since this series began on Friday. That was a long time ago! And now Verdugo opens with a base hit to right over new pitcher Landon Knack.

Chisholm hits a line shot to the right of the wall! Betts plays it perfectly! That means Jazz only has one single! Great defense from Betts!

Soto can't find Hudson's low slider. That's strike three and the first out.

Then Hudson slaps Judge right on the wrist, as if he didn't have enough problems already! that was disgusting! But it means Judge doesn't throw punches, so that's progress.

An out base runner here for Chisholm.

Wells hits a long, deep drive to midfield! Is that out? No, it's from the top wall! Volpe got it wrong and doesn't score from second with a double! How is that possible? Are you kidding me?

Wow!

OK, so second and third, one out, and here's Verdugo, who hit a garbage-time home run in the ninth inning last night.

Wells, of course, is behind in the count. Casparius throws first to control Volpe, who goes first.

Now he delivers and Wells shoots the ball out, out of play behind home plate – that's a foul and out of the game.

Then Volpe takes off on the next pitch! It's a good jump and the Yankee shortstop slides in safely! So New York has a third runner in scoring position!

Dodgers 2-0 Yankees, bottom

Volpe goes for a walk. The problem is that Wells is next and he hasn't thrown a single shot in a long time. What is now?

Dodgers 2-0 Yankees, bottom

Casparius is back out there in LA and Rizzo is at it in New York. The first baseman hit but had no problems with his hand. Here he is watching a moving fastball get three hits!

Volpe is next.
