MLB World Series Bracket 2024: MVP Race Before Yankees vs. Dodgers Game 5
B/RThe New York Yankees found their offense Tuesday night, so the 2024 MLB World Series found a pulse.
Backed all the way against the wall in an 0-3 hole, the Yankees erupted for an 11-4, series-extending win over the Los Angeles Dodgers.
New York, which managed just seven total runs over the first three contests, slugged three homers in the game, including a third-inning grand slam from Anthony Volpe and a three-run shot by Gleyber Torres in the eighth.
History says the Yankees are merely delaying the inevitable—no team has ever recovered from an 0-3 deficit in the World Series—but the Dodgers will still want this series to end as soon as possible.
