Blake Snell was utterly dominant and was only stopped by a controversial pitching change that proved key in the Los Angeles Dodges coming back to defeat the Tampa Bay Rays and capture their first World Series title since 1988.
Back as the home team after three games, the Dodgers were tasked with keeping the Rays off the scoreboard before they could hit. That went awry when Randy Arozarena lined a slider outside of the zone into the right-field stands for a solo home run.
Tony Gonsolin followed that by allowing a single and issuing a walk to give the Rays a pair of baserunners with one out in the first inning.
