World Series Recap: Dodgers Bullpen Backs Clayton Kershaw In Game 5 Win Over Rays

On a night Clayton Kershaw and Tyler Glasnow both labored through their respective outings, the Los Angeles Dodgers took an early lead and used it to come away with a 4-2 win over the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 5 of the World Series.

This year marked the 47th time in World Series history it was tied 2-2. Of previous 46 cases, the winner of Game 5 has won the series 30 times (65%).

If there were any questions how the Dodgers would recover from a deflating loss, those were quickly answered as Mookie Betts opened the game with a double and Corey Seager followed with an RBI single.
