The Los Angeles Dodgers are within one win of sweeping the New York Yankees in the World Series, thanks to Freddie Freeman's incredible power display. In Game 3, Freeman tied a historic record by hitting a home run in his fifth straight World Series game, which boosted the Dodgers to a 4-2 victory. Walker Buehler and the Dodgers' pitching staff held the Yankees' bats silent for most of the game, and LA now leads the best-of-seven series 3-0. With a 3-0 lead in the series, the Dodgers are on the cusp of a remarkable achievement. The Yankees, facing a potential sweep, must dig deep to avoid becoming the latest team to fall to LA's powerful lineup and stellar pitching. The pressure is on for both teams, with the Dodgers eager to clinch their eighth championship and the Yankees desperate to pull off a historic comeback.
Freeman's performance has been nothing short of spectacular. He has been the driving force behind the Dodgers' offense, hitting key homers in crucial moments. Meanwhile, the Yankees, particularly Aaron Judge, have struggled at the plate. Judge's postseason woes continue, with him going 1-for-12 over the first three games. The Dodgers' bullpen played a significant role in Game 3, keeping the Yankees' offense in check until the final innings. Despite the Yankees' late rally, they couldn't overcome the deficit, and the Dodgers secured another vital win. The stage is set for a dramatic Game 4, where the Yankees will try to avoid elimination, while the Dodgers aim for a clean sweep. The series has been marked by LA's dominance, but New York still has a chance to make history and turn the tables.
