As the World Series continues, here are three things well be keeping an eye on around the baseball world throughout the day today: 1. World Series Game 5: The Yankees extended their season yesterday with a 11-4 win over the Dodgers last night. An grand slam put the club in front in the third inning, and while L.A. scored a pair in the fifth the Yankees responded in the sixth before pouring on five runs in the bottom of the eighth to seal Hurricanes Store Jersey the deal. After the clubs bats appeared to be largely absent throughout the series, the club is surely hoping yesterdays offensive explosion will carry over into Game 5, which will be a rematch of Game 1s duel between and . The Yankees ace threw six innings of one-run ball while striking out four in his first World Series outing since 2019, while Flaherty countered with six strikeouts and two runs over 5 1/3 innings of work. The game is scheduled to begin at 8:08pm local time this evening. 2. Freeman makes history: Dodgers first baseman made history last night when he became (as noted by ) the first player in World Series history to hit a home run in six consecutive World Series games. After hitting homers in the final two games of the 2021 World Series against the Astros as a member of the Braves, Freeman has gone yard in all four games of the 2024 World Series to this point, including his walk-off grand slam in Game 1. Last nights history-making blast was a two-run shot in the first inning that gave the Dodgers the only lead theyd have all night. No player has ever homered in every game of a single World Series, though Freeman could change that with a home run and a Dodgers win this evening. Will he and the Dodgers make history again today? 3. As White Sox wrap up managerial search, all eyes on Miami: The White Sox are set to hire Rangers a sociate manager as their next manager, giving the 42-year-old his first managerial gig after he previously served as the #2 in both Arlington and Boston. The White Sox have not yet officially announced the decision, as teams generally avoid announcing news on days where a playoff game occurs. While the baseball world waits for Chicagos decision to become official, all eyes will be on the final managerial vacancy remaining this offseason: that of the Marlins. Venable was for the job in Miami alongside Guardians bench coach Craig Albernaz. Will the Marlins managerial search conclude quickly in an Albernaz hire now that Venable is off the board, or is there a dark horse candidate who could emerge in the coming days? Justin Faulk Jersey
