That left them looking to become the first of 25 teams that fell behind 3-0 in the World Series to force a Game 6, which would have been back at Dodger Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>And they got off to a rollicking start, too, with back-to-back homers by Judge and Jazz Chisholm Jr. in the first inning. Giancarlo Stanton went deep leading off the third, and the Bronx Bombers had a 5-0 cushion.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;You feel pretty confident with your ace up there and a five-run lead.

It appeared Judge took his eye off the ball, which he tried snagging with just his glove hand.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;You can&rsquo;t give a good team like that extra outs,&rdquo; Judge said. &ldquo;It starts with me there on the line drive coming in, misplayed that. So that doesn&rsquo;t happen, then I think we&rsquo;ve got a different story tonight.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Will Smith followed with a grounder to the right of Volpe, who fielded it cleanly in the hole and tried to get the lead runner at third base. But the 2023 Gold Glove winner bounced a hurried throw that glanced off Chisholm&rsquo;s glove for another error, loading the bases.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Suddenly, the bases are loaded for the Dodgers with nobody out! &#128064;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WorldSeries?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WorldSeries<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pyjn7kqoCY\">pic.twitter.com\/pyjn7kqoCY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; FOX Sports: MLB (@MLBONFOX) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MLBONFOX\/status\/1851800859362902176?\">October 31, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>After a mound visit, Cole buckled down and struck out Gavin Lux and Shohei Ohtani as the sellout crowd of 49,263 at Yankee Stadium roared.<\/p>\n<p>And it looked as though Cole had wriggled out of the jam when Mookie Betts grounded a slow squibber to first baseman Anthony Rizzo.

stay was brief\u2014another disappointing postseason for baseball\u2019s most storied franchise that once dominated October.<\/p>\n<p>Not anymore\u2014at least not recently\u2014and for Yankees fans, waiting fifteen years between championships feels like an eternity. &#8220;We didn\u2019t get it done,&#8221; Judge acknowledged. &#8220;We made some mistakes along the way that cost us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead lies an offseason filled with uncertainty as New York aims to retain free agent slugger Juan Soto amid interest from multiple teams willing to offer substantial contracts. &#8220;I\u2019m really happy here\u2014the city and team are great\u2014but ultimately we\u2019ll evaluate every situation and offer before making any decisions,\u201d Soto stated.<\/p>\n<p>Judge expressed his desire for Soto to remain in New York: \u201cI think everyone wants him back,\u201d he said of his teammate\u2019s impact both statistically and as a leader within their clubhouse.<\/p>\n<p>After losing three straight games against LA, the Yankees managed a victory in Game 4 (11-4), preventing a sweep but still needing four wins after falling behind three games\u2014an unprecedented challenge historically faced by only twenty-five teams before them.<\/p>\n<p>They started strong in Game 5 with back-to-back home runs from Judge and Jazz Chisholm Jr., followed by Giancarlo Stanton\u2019s homer giving them an early lead of five runs\u2014a promising position considering they had their ace pitcher on mound.<\/p>\n<p>However, things took a turn when Kik\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez led off with a single followed by Judge dropping what should have been an easy fly ball\u2014a misplay attributed partly due to taking his eye off it while attempting just one-handed catch.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can&#8217;t give good teams extra chances,&#8221; lamented Judge about his error which set up trouble right away; Volpe then mishandled another play leading into further errors loading bases without any outs against them!<\/p>\n<p>Despite moments where hope flickered (like Stanton regaining lead momentarily), reliever Tommy Kahnle faltered allowing Dodgers\u2019 batsmen Lux &amp; Betts capitalize late game resulting ultimately sealing fate at final score of seven-six favoring Los Angeles who held firm through remaining innings despite valiant efforts from Yankee players trying regain control throughout match-up until bitter end arrived leaving fans heartbroken alongside manager Aaron Boone expressing feelings shared widely among supporters alike post-game reflections captured perfectly summed up simply yet poignantly via words spoken directly following loss itself stating plainly \u201cIt\u2019s brutal.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2362195,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/2592cf1de6914ec7b7f785ce1836dcc0-scaled-e1730380703887.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[3754,11549,44088,44026,26740],"class_list":["post-2362194","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-comeback","tag-dodgers","tag-game-5","tag-world-series","tag-yankees"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/2592cf1de6914ec7b7f785ce1836dcc0-scaled-e1730380703887.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2362194","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2362194"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2362194\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2362195"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2362194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2362194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2362194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
