World Series Game 3 Preview: Dodgers Host Blue Jays in Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES – The World Series continues on Monday evening as the Toronto Blue Jays take on the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 3, after the teams split the first two games in Toronto. Blue Jays pitcher Max Scherzer, a former Dodger, will face off against Tyler Glasnow, who has been strong this postseason.

George Springer, the Blue Jays’ leadoff hitter, has been on a roll with 14 hits, including four home runs, in his playoff games so far. He is 3 for 8 in the World Series and has a solid history against Glasnow, going 6 for 13 with a home run in his career. Many expect Springer to thrive in tonight’s game.

In the opening game of the series, the Blue Jays scored 11 runs against the Dodgers, but they managed only one run in Game 2. As the teams move to Dodger Stadium, fans are gearing up for what could be another high-scoring matchup.

Max Scherzer had a challenging regular season with a 5.19 ERA but showed resilience in the ALCS, delivering a tight performance against the Mariners. He pitched 5 2/3 innings allowing two earned runs. Despite his age, Scherzer is aiming for another strong showing in a pivotal postseason game.

Glasnow has been dominant this October with a 2.86 ERA, but he, too, faces a tough matchup against a hefty Blue Jays lineup. With both pitchers capable of big performances, fans can anticipate an exciting duel. The Dodgers are favored to win, with odds set at -200, while the Blue Jays are underdogs at +165.

The game will be broadcast live on FOX at 8 p.m. ET from Dodger Stadium. With the series on the line, both teams are looking to gain the upper hand and take a step closer to the championship title.
