Game 3 college world series
The Yankees avoided becoming the first team to get swept in the World Series since the 2012 Tigers and the first Yanks team to do so since 1976. They have forced a Game 5 on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium — a game that has proven a pickle for some past clubs that lost the first three games of a postseason series but, in this case, is a big, big deal for a team able to trot out a pitcher of Cole’s ilk.< https://vege-chandra.info/ /p>

When Judge was asked Tuesday what he admired about Ohtani, the Yankees captain smiled and chuckled, “Other than the obvious? I feel like everything is obvious – he hits for average, he hits for power, the speed, doing what he did this year with the 50 stolen bases,” he said.
Game world series 2011 6
Lance Lynn came on to pitch for the Cardinals in the top of the seventh and was promptly greeted with back-to-back home runs by Adrián Beltré and Nelson Cruz to put Texas up by two. The home run allowed Cruz to tie the record for most postseason home runs in a season at 8; he shares the achievement with Carlos Beltrán and Barry Bonds.
The 2011 World Series was the championship series of Major League Baseball’s (MLB) 2011 season. The 107th edition of the World Series, it was a best-of-seven playoff played between the American League (AL) champion Texas Rangers and the National League (NL) champion St. Louis Cardinals; the Cardinals defeated the Rangers in seven games to win their 11th World Series championship and their second in six seasons.
Even in the face of adversity, the 2011 Cardinals proved to be a resilient bunch capable or miracles. St. Louis overcame an 11.5-game deficit in mid-August to claim the National League’s final postseason spot on the last day of the regular season.
The Rangers lost home-field advantage in the World Series as a result of the AL team, managed by Rangers manager Ron Washington, losing the 2011 All-Star Game, when Ranger ace C. J. Wilson surrendered the game-winning three-run homer to Prince Fielder.
Texas once again took a two-run lead in the 10th on Hamilton’s home run, and after manufacturing a run to cut the deficit in half, St. Louis was again one out away from defeat. But Lance Berkman laced a game-tying single to center, making the Cardinals the first team in World Series history to come back from two different two-run deficits in the ninth inning or later. There would be no deficit in the 11th, however, as Freese — the eventual Series MVP — blasted a walk-off home run to center field off Mark Lowe to force a Game 7.
World series 5 game highlights
Koufax punched out 15 and held the Yankees to two runs in a Game 1 complete game. Then, with the Dodgers up three games to none in the series (sound familiar?), Koufax again went the distance, striking out eight over nine innings of one-run ball to sweep the Yanks.
• Buehler became the eighth pitcher with a win as a starter and a save in the same postseason series since saves were official in 1969. He joined Ranger Suárez in the 2022 NLCS, Clayton Kershaw in the 2016 NLDS, Madison Bumgarner in the 2014 World Series, Kevin Millwood in the 1999 NLDS, Orel Hershiser in the 1988 NLCS, Catfish Hunter in the 1974 World Series and Jack Billingham in the 1972 World Series.
It was a wild, memorable game on Wednesday night, and it cemented the Dodgers’ eighth World Series title. That ties the Giants for the fifth-most all time, behind only the Yankees (27), Cardinals (11), Red Sox (nine) and Athletics (nine).
• Freeman won well-deserved World Series MVP honors, with four homers, 12 RBIs and a .300 average. He’s the 12th player to win a league MVP and World Series MVP in his career, and to say the list is good company is an understatement. He joins Johnny Bench, Roberto Clemente, Rollie Fingers, Bob Gibson, Reggie Jackson, Sandy Koufax, Brooks Robinson, Frank Robinson, Pete Rose, Mike Schmidt and Willie Stargell. That’s 10 Hall of Famers and the all-time hits leader.
• Giancarlo Stanton hit his 18th postseason homer — two more than any other player in his first 41 postseason games. His seven this October set a record for most in a single postseason in the Yankees’ storied history.
Before that inning, Kahnle hadn’t given up an earned run this postseason. His changeup was so wicked, so delightful that John Smoltz on the Fox broadcast requested a changeup counter on the screen. But in the eighth inning a combination of rotten command and over-reliance on the changeup led directly to the Dodgers putting the series to bed.
