Dodgers vs. Yankees Game 3 score, live updates: World Series shifts to New York as Los Angeles leads 2-0

The Los Angeles Dodgers took care of business at home in the first two games of the 2024 World Series, and now the New York Yankees will try to stay in the series and avoid a 3-0 hole in Game 3. The middle three games of the series — if the Yankees extend the series to five or more games — are at Yankee Stadium, where New York had the worst home record (44-37) of any of the six division winners in Major League Baseball this season.

Shohei Ohtani, who suffered a separated shoulder while stealing second base in the seventh inning of Game 2, is in the lineup for Game 3 of the World Series. Yankees slugger Giancarlo Stanton is the 2024 postseason leader in home runs with six in 11 games. For the Dodgers, it’s been the Freddie Freeman show in the World Series thus far, as he’s gone 3-for-9 with two home runs — including that epic, game-winning grand slam in Game 1 — to go along with five RBI.

Walker Buehler (0-1, 6.00 ERA, 9.0 IP, 6 K, 3 BB in 2024 postseason) gets the ball for the Dodgers against Clarke Schmidt (0-0, 3.86 ERA, 9.1 IP, 6 K, 3 BB) for the Yankees with first pitch set for 8:08 p.m. ET.

  • Jeter delivers a strike, because of course he does.

  • Derek Jeter’s throwing out the first pitch. That should get the Bronx appropriately hyped for Game 3.

  • Shohei Ohtani took the field holding his left arm gingerly during pregame introductions. He wore something over his uniform and under his jacket over his injured left shoulder as he ran onto the field.

    Some folks are speculating that it’s a sling, but this isn’t how you wear a sling:

  • Can Aaron Judge snap cold streak?

    All eyes are on Aaron Judge tonight. The presumptive AL MVP is batting .150 in the postseason and is 0 for 10 in the playoffs with runners in scoring position. He combined for six strikeouts in Games 1 and 2 of the World Series in Los Angeles as the Yankees dug an 0-2 hole.

    The Yankees’ hopes of turning the series around at home rest significantly on his bat.

  • Shohei Ohtani is playing

    For the Dodgers, a massive sigh of relief with their Game 3 lineup card. Shohei Ohtani will not miss a game after dislocating his left shoulder while sliding during an attempted steal in Game 2. He’ll take his normal place at the top of the Dodgers order.

  • Yankees make change at catcher

    Here’s the Yankees’ lineup for Game 3, with the most notable move coming at catcher. Jose Trevino will start behind the plate and bat seventh in the lineup in place of regular starter Austin Wells. Wells went a combined 1 for 8 in Games 1 and 2 and is batting .098 in the postseason
