The media isn't talking about it much, but lost amid the World Series storylines in the fact that the Dodgers, despite leading 3-1, are not exactly scoring runs in bunches. In regulation time, they haven't scored more than four runs in nine innings, and minus Freddie Freeman's contributions, the numbers would be far worse. The total run count in this series is also level at 18-18. If the Yankees are to stay alive for another night and force this series back to Chavez Ravine, they couldn't have a better guy on the hill than Gerrit Cole, who worked six solid innings in Game 1, allowing just one run and four hits, after the Yanks had won in his five previous starts. Meanwhile, Jack Flaherty has been less reifiable for the Dodgers, with a 6.10 ERA in the postseason, and a 6.23 ERA in his last seven starts back into mid-September. Dave Roberts will likely use his bullpen extensively tonight. Play Yankees on Run Line
