World Series Yankees vs Dodgers Game 1 score and live updates: Will Smith’s sacrifice fly gets LA on the board first

The Dodgers eventually broke through for a run, but both pitchers had been the best for five innings. So now the question comes: how deep will they go in this game?

Jack Flaherty has 74 places. Gerrit Cole is 66.

Hitters had significantly more success in the regular season when they faced Flaherty for the third time. Opponents’ OPS rose from .599 the second time around the order to .807 the third time.

Cole didn’t pitch a full season due to injury, but the third time-through penalty didn’t exist for him this year. Batters had a .718 OPS against him the second time and just a .580 OPS the third time. For Cole’s career, however, the OPS rises for the third time from .605 to .686.
