Dodgers capture World Series by storming back in Game 5 to upend Yankees: Takeaways
NEW YORK — The Los Angeles Dodgers will finally get their parade. Trailing by five runs early in Game 5 of the World Series on Wednesday, the Dodgers capitalized on a series of errors and misplays by the New York Yankees, storming to a 7-6 victory at Yankee Stadium. Freddie Freeman, who tied a World Series record with 12 runs batted in, drove in the tying runs in a five-run rally in the fifth, after errors by Aaron Judge and Anthony Volpe and a critical blunder by Gerrit Cole, who failed to cover the bag on a grounder to first that should have ended the inning. The previous time came in the 1956 World Series when the Yankees blew a five-run lead against the Brooklyn Dodgers in Game 2. Cole’s need for six outs to escape the fifth inning led to the Dodgers scoring five runs, tying the score at 5-5.
