Wildly embarrassing Game 5 might've just sealed Dodgers' World Series fate

If you thought that the Dodgers just seemed to peter out and die in Game 4, they somehow managed to do it even more in Game 5.

Blake Snell was on the mound, looking to redeem himself after a five-run, five-inning Game 1 and a failure to volunteer himself to pitch in Game 3. He immediately gave up a first-pitch homer to Davis Schneider, and then a second-pitch homer to Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to give the Blue Jays an immediate lead.

Fans knew that the Dodgers' offense, which only managed to score two runs in Game 4, just doesn't have the grit right now to even come back from a two-run deficit.
