The Toronto Blue Jays looked ready in Game 2 to pick up from where they left off in Game 1 of the World Series.
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto instead silenced the Blue Jays’ bats in a 5–1 complete game victory on Saturday. Yamamoto threw the first complete World Series game in a decade when Johnny Cueto did it in 2015 for the Kansas City Royals.
