The Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles are tied 1-1 in the 2025 World Series after splitting the first two games at Rogers Centre. The series shifts to Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles for tonight’s pivotal Game 3.
Solo home runs by Teoscar Hernández and Shohei Ohtani gave the Dodgers a 2-0 lead. Toronto then took a 4-2 lead in the fourth on an Alejandro Kirk three-run home run followed by an Andrés Giménez sacrifice fly.
Ohtani ripped an RBI double in the fifth before Freddie Freeman hit a single to tie the game. Bo Bichette gave the Blue Jays a 5-4 lead with a single in the seventh before Ohtani tied the game in the bottom half with another homer.
Follow below for news, updates and analysis from our reporters.
Shohei Ohtani is supposed to pitch tomorrow, which makes whatever happened there super interesting.

Speaking of past Dodgers walk-offs, Freddie Freeman has a chance to make another indelible memory in Dodgers World series history for the second straight year…
Shohei Ohtani didn’t look super comfortable pulling into second base there. Was stretching out his leg when Yosuke Nakajima and Dave Roberts came out. But he’s staying in. That would’ve been bad, to say the least.

LOS ANGELES — David Aguilar has been a Los Angeles Dodgers fan for 50 years, but not once did he think he’d experience something like this.
The Dodgers were trailing the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 in the bottom of the seventh inning of Game 3 of the World Series. Shohei Ohtani — who was 3-for-3 with a homer already — strode to the plate. He saw exactly one pitch from Blue Jays reliever Seranthony Dominguez — a 97 mile per hour challenge fastball left in the heart of the plate — and sent it rippling high in the air to the opposite field.
Sitting in the left field bleachers — the second row in section 307 to be exact — Aguilar tracked the ball all the way. He shot his left arm up and closed his eyes. When he opened them, history laid in his palm.

Time to see who won the Cavan Biggio trade.
Braydon Fisher faces his old team, looking to keep a World Series marathon going.
Emmet Sheehan picked one heck of a time to have his best outing of the postseason.
It’s been a struggle in his shift to relief, allowing at least one run in each appearance and retiring just one of the four batters he faced in Game 1 of this World Series.

My longest game behind the plate was the home opener for Cleveland against Boston in 1992.
19 innings, 6:30.
I used a line that I hoped I would never have to use again, I called Mark Whitten out on strikes to end the 17th inning. He started to complain that I said:
💬 “Mark, that pitch has been a strike for 17 innings, and it’s still a strike!”

With retirement coming up after the World Series — and unable to get into this amazing game so far — Clayton Kershaw has a very Willie Mays 1973 vibe to him right now.
That year, in Game 7 of the World Series in Oakland, Mays could have come up as the tying run with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning. But Mets manager Yogi Berra left him on the bench as Wayne Garrett popped out to end the season.
That was the end of Mays’ career.

The Fox broadcast showing Clayton Kershaw sitting alone, tense, in the Dodgers bullpen could either be an all-time red herring or foreshadowing a whole new layer of weird baseball poetry ahead.
Emmet Sheehan is going back out for the 11th, but Clayton Kershaw is the man warming behind him.
