The Los Angeles Dodgers staged a crucial comeback to defeat the Toronto Blue Jays 3-1 in Game 6 of the World Series, leveling the series at 3-3 and setting the stage for a thrilling Game 7. Manager Dave Roberts’ strategic batting order adjustments paid off as the Dodgers capitalized on key moments in the third inning. Catcher Will Smith and outfielder Mookie Betts delivered pivotal hits, driving in three runs to establish an early lead. Despite a sharp line drive from George Springer that narrowed the gap, Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto showcased his prowess, allowing only one run over six innings. The Blue Jays’ hopes were further dashed by a controversial umpiring decision in the ninth inning, where a potential game-tying play was ruled a ground rule double, leaving runners stranded. The Dodgers’ defense held firm, securing the win and forcing a decisive final game at Toronto’s Rogers Centre on Saturday evening.
