"Facing the reigning MVP winner, Yesavage struck out Shohei Ohtani on five pitches, making him look foolish on the 85.2 mph splitter he through him in a 2-2 count.

"But he ran into some trouble in the second. A walk, a fielders choice and a single put runners on first and second with one out. Up stepped Enrique Hernández who hit a middle-away slider into center field, bringing Teoscar Hernández in around to score the first run of the World Series. Tommy Edman then singled to load the bases. That brought number nine hitter Andy Pages to the plate."
Trey Yesavage, 22, became the youngest player to start a World Series game in 78 years and helped the Toronto Blue Jays take a 1-0 series lead with an 11-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Yesavage opened with a 1-2-3 first inning, including a five-pitch strikeout of Shohei Ohtani on an 85.2 mph splitter. He struggled in the second inning with a walk, fielder's choice and single that produced an Enrique Hernández RBI, and later faced a bases-loaded threat before inducing a groundout. The Blue Jays bullpen maintained the lead and secured the Game 1 win.
