Yoshinobu Yamamoto vs. Kevin Gausman.
Well, last night was pretty much a beatdown. Dodgers starter Blake Snell didn't have anywhere near the stuff he's had for this postseason; the Banda brothers in the bullpen kept serving up meatballs, and the offense missed plenty of chances to put this away early, thanks in part to untimely early-count swinging that got Toronto's pen off the hook multiple times.
And Andy Pages is batting .077 this postseason, adding two Ks last night in an 0-for-4 contribution.
All the pundits said our NLDS vs. Philadelphia was the toughest matchup of the postseason. So was the 2024 NLDS against the Padres--the difference being that we had to claw our way past the Mets as well in the 2024 NLCS, whereas we breezed past the Brewers this year.
So Game 1 was a good reminder that this 2025 World Series isn't going to be easy--just like last year.
Let's sack up and steal one on the road tonight, Yoshi!
LET'S GO, DODGERS!

Thanks Quad!
We're going with the same lineup, including Pages at the bottom. Let's hope he stops being a black hole for the offense out there.
I am out of pocket for most of this game, so bring it home for us, team!
Same as last night—got out of it first inning but too many pitches
Bastards tie it up.
Gaus getting that low strike call out of the zone is killing us.
SLAPPY!!!
FUNKY MUNCY!!
