World Series Tied as Dodgers Host Blue Jays in Game 3

The 2025 World Series is evenly matched after two games, and will continue today as the Los Angeles Dodgers host the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 3, with the series now tied 1-1.

Veteran pitcher Max Scherzer will take the mound for Toronto, marking his fourth World Series start with a different team – a new record for a pitcher and overall player. Scherzer, despite a challenging regular season with the Blue Jays due to a thumb injury, delivered a strong performance against the Seattle Mariners in the American League Championship Series. His experience will be crucial as Toronto attempts to win a game on the road against a formidable Dodgers lineup.

Toronto’s lineup receives a boost with the expected return of star middle infielder Bo Bichette, who will start at second base after sitting out the previous game. Bichette’s presence is a significant addition for the Blue Jays, particularly facing the Dodgers’ strong pitching rotation. The Dodgers will counter with right-handed pitcher Tyler Glasnow, who has allowed only one run in two postseason starts. This series is shaping up to be a classic, with the outcome potentially hinging on these key matchups. For a look at the full postseason bracket, visit MLB.com.

The Blue Jays face an uphill battle, knowing that a potential loss tonight would put them in a difficult position with Shohei Ohtani scheduled to start for the Dodgers in Game 4. First pitch is scheduled for 5:00 P.M. sharp today.

Team officials stated that they are confident in their players’ ability to adjust and compete, regardless of the venue.
