"Blake Snell has two starts under his belt in the 2025 World Series for the Los Angeles Dodgers, and they've lost both of those games to the Toronto Blue Jays. After being touched up for five earned runs in Game 1 - he was back on the mound in Game 5 at home, and was once again saddled with the loss."
"I mean, they didn't really get to me. First pitch of the game-97 fastball up and in, he [Schneider] hits it 98, it goes out. Pretty unlucky. And then Vlad that's just a bad pitch. ... And then after that, pretty smooth sailing. Figured out their lineup, what they like to do. And [Daulton] Varsho gets a triple on a 78 exit [velocity]. It's just unlucky."
Blake Snell started two games for the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 2025 World Series and lost both to the Toronto Blue Jays. He allowed five earned runs in each start, recording seven strikeouts, four walks and six hits in 6.2 innings in Game 5. He surrendered consecutive leadoff homers in Game 5 to Davis Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero Jr., a first in World Series history. Snell exited Game 5 with Toronto leading 3-1; reliever Edgardo Henriquez allowed inherited runners to score. Snell described the results as "pretty unlucky" and singled out Vladimir Guerrero Jr. while minimizing the rest of the lineup.
