"It was his first road start in the postseason, and Yesavage did not at all disappoint in this one. The Blue Jays bounced back, tying the series up at two apiece the day before, and trusted in their top rookie pitcher to lead them back into Toronto with a championship on the horizon. Yesavage maintained dominance and shut down the Los Angeles Dodgers throughout the night."
"The right-handed rookie was spot-up good in this outing. He threw a total of 104 pitches; 45 pitches were sliders, 30 splitters, and 29 four-seam fastballs. His pitch movement on the two breaking pitches was unreadable, moving vertically around -25 to -35 inches. This was consistent in all usage. 53 pitches were in the zone, while 51 pitches were out of the zone. He was 52-all on pitches taken and swung at; he threw 71 strikes and 33 balls."
Trey Yesavage made his first road postseason start in Game 5 and dominated, allowing one run over 104 pitches. Toronto supplied early offense with first-inning home runs from David Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero Jr, giving Yesavage room to operate. Yesavage mixed 45 sliders, 30 splitters and 29 four-seam fastballs, with breaking pitches moving vertically around -25 to -35 inches. He threw 53 pitches in the zone and 51 out, finishing with 71 strikes and 33 balls. The Dodgers collected only four hits, one of them Enrique Hernandez’s solo homer, and struck out frequently.
