Anthony Volpe’s grand slam on Tuesday night propelled New York to an 11-4 victory in Game 4 and offered hope to the Yankees and their fans as they trail to 1 in the Series 3 games. The young shortstop’s blast made New York’s offense woke up as the Bronx Bombers picked up 9 hits, including home runs from the aforementioned Volpe and a 3-run shot from Gleyber Torres. The Yankees’ bullpen was out for the final five innings, while the Dodgers’ relievers surrendered 10 runs in the final six innings.

Most of the Dodgers’ offense was provided by Freddie Freeman, who homered in the 1^st with Mookie Betts on board for his 4^e round-tripper of the Series and an MLB record 6^e straight game in the fall classic with a home run.

Hope for the Yankees takes the field on Wednesday in the form of their ace, Gerrit Cole. He was brilliant in Game 1, throwing 6 innings of 4-hit, 1 run-ball. Jack Flaherty takes the mound for Los Angeles. The right-hander was also a force in Game 1, allowing just 2 runs in 5.1 innings.

The loss in Game 4 dropped the Dodgers’ odds (-800) to win the World Series by 60% and the Yankees’ odds (+550) to win it all improved by 45%.

Likely starting pitchers for Los Angeles @ New York – World Series Game 5

● Wednesday’s (October 30) pitching game: Jack Flaherty vs. Gerrit Cole

○ Evaders: Flaherty (1-2, 6.10 ERA) – Acquired at the trade deadline from Detroit, the veteran has been the Dodgers’ ace since arriving in SoCal. That said, he was inconsistent in the postseason, posting a miserable performance after every good performance. In the NLCS, after shutting out the Mets in Game 1, Flaherty lasted just 3 innings and gave up 8 runs in Game 5.

○ Yankees: Cole (1-0, 2.82 ERA) – the Yankees’ undisputed ace has been exceptional all postseason. New York has won 3 of its 4 starts in October. The only loss was Game 1 of this series when they lost in 10 innings at the Freeman Slam. He has allowed 7 earned runs in 22.1 innings.
