In the recent edition of Dodgers Dugout, Houston Mitchell discusses the highlights from the first two games of the World Series. Game 1 saw a magical moment with Freddie Freeman hitting a grand slam, leading the Dodgers to a victory despite falling behind. Joe Davis’ iconic call added to the emotional impact of the game. Meanwhile, Game 2 showcased a strong performance from pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto and unexpected power from Tommy Edman.
The biggest concern arose from Shohei Ohtani’s shoulder injury after a head-first slide. While initially worrisome, it was diagnosed as a shoulder subluxation, similar to Cody Bellinger’s injury in 2020. Ohtani is expected to play in Game 3, but his impact on the Yankees’ pitchers cannot be underestimated.
Fans shared their memories of Dodgers legend Fernando Valenzuela, highlighting the impact he had on the Hispanic community and the inspiration he provided to aspiring athletes. Despite the Dodgers’ strong start in the World Series, there is a reminder of past comebacks, emphasizing the team’s need to stay focused.
As the series continues, the question of who will win remains uncertain, with fans leaning towards a Dodgers victory in six or seven games. The schedule and lineup for upcoming games are detailed, showcasing the anticipation and excitement surrounding the star-studded World Series between the Dodgers and Yankees.
