MLB World Series Game 3 Preview - Summary
Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner preview Game 3 of the MLB World Series with the Dodgers leading the Yankees 2-0 as the series moves to Yankee Stadium. Munaf summarizes Games 1 and 2, highlighting Freddie Freeman's Game 1 walk-off grand slam that turned a Yankees’ lead into a Dodgers’ 6-3 victory. The decision to walk Mookie Betts to face an injured but effective Freeman was crucial. Griffin notes Nestor Cortes pitching for the Yankees after a month-long break, suggesting bullpen management challenges for New York.
In Game 2, Dodgers pitcher Yamamoto allowed just one run over six innings, supported by homers from Tommy Edman and Teoscar Hernandez, securing a 4-2 win and a 2-0 series lead. Munaf applauds Garrett Cole’s Game 1 start with six innings and four strikeouts for the Yankees, but offensive contributions from Judge have been lacking. The Dodgers’ bullpen, led by Jack Flaherty, has outperformed New York’s across both games, highlighting the Yankees’ dependence on bullpen depth in future games.
With Game 3 at Yankee Stadium, a higher-scoring game is anticipated due to the hitter-friendly environment. The Dodgers, who have hit four or more runs in nearly every postseason game, will rely on consistency from the lower lineup, which includes standout performances from Hernandez and Muncy. Walker Buehler will start for the Dodgers, facing Yankees’ starter Clark Schmidt, who may require early bullpen support. This factor could favor the Dodgers, who have a deeper, reliable bullpen.
Griffin and Munaf predict runs will exceed the 8.5 over/under total, with Dodgers’ hitters remaining potent. Shohei Ohtani’s shoulder injury, though expected to be manageable, could affect the Dodgers’ lineup if his performance is impaired, impacting how opponents pitch to Betts and Freeman. For bettors, Griffin suggests monitoring Ohtani’s status and describes market trends favoring Yankees in a must-win, while Munaf backs the Dodgers to score over 3.5 runs.
Their best bets point to Dodgers as favorites, given consistent scoring and stronger bullpen depth, even with the Yankees’ pressing need to win. With Dodgers’ lineup strength, pitching, and bullpen advantage, the Yankees face an uphill climb in Game 3 to shift series momentum.
