Freddie Freeman of the Los Angeles Dodgers made history by tying George Springer's record of homering in five straight World Series games. In Game 3 against the New York Yankees, Freeman hit a two-run home run off Clarke Schmidt in the first inning, giving the Dodgers an early 2-0 lead. The Dodgers, aiming for their second title in five years, came into the game with a 2-0 series lead.
Despite playing with a partially separated left shoulder, Shohei Ohtani managed to draw a walk in the game. Following Ohtani's walk, Mookie Betts flied out, setting the stage for Freeman's impressive home run. The 35-year-old eight-time All-Star and 2020 NL MVP has been a standout performer in the World Series, accumulating seven RBIs so far.
