The New York Yankees pulled out all the appropriate lines for their situation. In a quiet clubhouse, suddenly down, 3–0, to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series, they said they just need to focus on tomorrow. They need to go one game at a time, shut out any outside noise, take care of business. They need to get back to playing their brand of baseball. And there was one more thing, one they did not say very much about, presumably because it was so painfully obvious to everyone in the room after their performance in Game 3.
They need to hit.
