Blue Jays vs. Dodgers World Series Game 5 Highlights (10/29/25) | MLB Highlights

I’m going to keep betting on Muki, hitting behind Shi, and if they keep giving him opportunities, I know he’s going to come through. We have to get to the first thing that everyone’s wondering about, and that’s a shakeup to the lineup. Can you walk me through some of the decisions? Yeah, I I I think the first part um you know I I wanted to try to create a little bit more offense and then if you look at the nine-hole Alex calls in the lineup and I felt that having somebody who has an onbase pedigree I feel like he’ll give those good at bats first and whoever else to potentially give somebody on base for show. Um so I think that’s one part of it and then with Will and Muki I just felt that that’s just I wanted to give these guys a different look. I think Will, to be quite frank, is swinging the bat better and so uh give him uh you know another look and texted both both those guys last night and uh they were gave me the thumbs up and ready to go. This best of seven has become a best of three. The Dodgers and the Blue Jays. Game five from LA in Los Angeles on an 86 degree night. We’re ready for game five. And when the series is tied 2-2, the game five winner goes on to win the World Series twothirds of the time. They’ve won six of the last seven after taking game five in a two- two series. You know what I love about game five of a World Series? Throw away the stats. Now you’re seeing everybody for the second time. It’s time to adjust. Read and react. And that’s what Blake Snell has an opportunity to do. He was dominant before coming in here 3-0. He had one hiccup and he’s got a chance to make the adjustment. How about Davis Schneider leading off in a World Series game. He is going to be up first tonight with Blake Schnell on the mound. Game five is underway with a fly ball to deep left. Gone. The first pitch of the ball game and Davis Schneider has hit it out. A first pitch homer for Davis Schneider. And the Blue Jays take the lead in the first. Welcome to game five. Davis Schneider into George Springer’s shoes and doing a great impression. How about that? Ready for a first pitch fast ball and an ambush to start game five with a bang. First home run of the postseason for Davis Schneider who was just three for 16 in the playoffs. But he is the latest guy to step into a role for Toronto and come through. And the Blue Jay fans making a ton of noise. And now Guerrero rips one to deep left and it’s gone. And two batters in, they are up two to nothing. Backto back blasts in the first and in three pitches, the Blue Jays lead two nothing. What in the world are we watching right now? You wonder when two heavyweights are going at each other. Who is going to deliver the first blow? Well, they were ready to hit the fast. You felt like Snell was going to establish his fastball tonight because he didn’t do that in Toronto. The 705th World Series game all time. This is the first time that a team has gone backto back home runs to begin. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] What an incredible start here in game five. And here’s Treya Savage. Treya Savage did not have his split finger. That pitch is as good as it gets. And for him to have that pitch is the only way he can get through this Dodgers lineup unless that fast ball is electric and pinpointed. He run just four innings in game one gets a lot of chase when he’s right. The Dodgers were very patient. Walk three times and he threw 20 pitches per inning. Two and two on Otani in a two to nothing game already. Bounce back to the hill. Y Savage leaps, pops out of his glove. He catches it again and shovel passes it over to first in time for the out. even trying to get Otani when he somewhat fumbled it. Y Savage stays cool and he’s chuckling as he goes back to the hill. One out. Here’s Will Smith bumped up in the Dodger order. There’s a fly ball to left field that he hooks off the end of the bat and Boulder Schneider will put it away. All right, so Mookie Betts hitting third for the first time in years. Dave Roberts trying to take a little bit of pressure off of him with everything funneling to him. The bats just 147 since the start of the championship series. Savage home with an 02 and he strikes him out finishing off a one, two, three first inning and a first inning for the Blue Jays that could not have gone better. And with one out, Addison Barger steps in to go left on left with Blake Snell. Barger right side and through. Addison Barger. Five hits over the first two plus games here in LA. John Schneider looks like an absolute genius right now. Davis Schneider’s in the ball game for Nathan Lucas. He hit a home run keeping Addison Barger in this ball game. Left on left. He comes up with a with a knock right there. Isaiah Kinder Falefa getting a start again at second base. Sitting in the eighth spot. He is looking for his first hit of the World Series. Two is popped up down the line to ask Hernandez. See if he’s got one. He does. Two out. Andre Simenez knocked in a run in the seventh inning last night. Strikes him out swinging with a high fast ball at 97. And so Snell strands Barger’s one out single. floats up to zero in the second. Still two nothing Jays. That splitter looks a lot better. Already has the feel of the pitch that we got to see against the Yankees and really against Seattle. Swing and a miss. And that’s his second strike out of the start. One out in the bottom of the second. It is very difficult as a major league pitcher to make show Otani look bad, to make Bookie Betts look bad, and to make Freddy Freeman look bad. Trey Savage has done all three of those things in this ball game so far. T Oscar Hernandez 0 for seven in the first two games of this World Series, but five out of 11 with a home run since coming here to Dodger Stadium. Swinging a miss, strike three. There’s the slider and he punches out Hernandez. Three in a row and two down in the bottom of the second. That one right there might have been the best slider I have ever seen him throw. And Yavage has struck out three consecutive batters. Edmond with two away and the base is out. Big Dodgers looking for their first base runner. One, two, pitch. Swing and a miss. Strike three. Trey Savage strikes out this side. He’s punched out four in a row in two six up, six down innings in LA. After the two home runs over the first three pitches, how deep can he get? Heard you pitchers talk about it. It’s not always the eight shut out innings that you love. It’s those games where you got punched, you still found a way to help your team win. Absolutely. I mean, he’s 3 and 0 before that first World Series start. Dominating. This would be a better start than any of those three starts that he won. If he held them to two runs and his team came back and won strikes out Kirk and after the two home runs to start the game, he’s got four strikeouts and nothing since. Meanwhile, Treya Savage perhaps boosted by that early offense going out there pitching with the lead has retired the first six and has struck out four in a row. He strikes out Muny with a slider to the knees and it’s five in a row. Muny barking up the first baseline. He didn’t like it. Fiveks in a row, one down. Treya Savage looks like a different pitcher than the one we saw in Toronto for game one. Tikk Hernandez one out, nobody on. Here’s a high drive. Forget about it. Kik Hernandez finds the seats and the Dodgers are within a run. adds a quarter of the way up the pavilion for Kik Hernandez, who’s launched his first home run of the postseason to give Dodgers Stadium some much needed life. And what was Dave Roberts talking about? Hitting mistakes. That’s what KK does. He’s been working on keeping that front shoulder in. And boy did he. Basketball location. Obviously, a pitcher knows right now. He’s just looking for a new ball. You don’t have to turn around and see how far it goes. You know when you release it. Hernandez giving the Dodgers a Joel. Back to the top of the order. Show Otani. Otani 0 for three yesterday in the losses in the postseason for the Dodgers is 1 for 12. And the two swinging a miss strike three. Otani loses his helmet on the splitter and Y Savage bounces back after giving up the solo shot to Kik Hernandez. Marshall hit a two-run homer off Snell in game one. It was a fast ball fat right over the middle of the plate. swing and a fly ball hooked down the right field line on the run to Oscar. Hernandez slides and it’s down rolling onto the side warning track. Vario hits the bag at second. He wants third. Hernandez picking it up now. And VO takes a look and stops at third with a leadoff triple. That’s a bad play by T Oscar Hernandez. You know you’re not going to catch it and you have to play it on a hop and keep it to a single. It’s going to be scored a triple. And this is another gap in this series. As we mentioned, the Blue Jays have not made an air in their last nine games. That’s not going to show up as an error, but Dodgers not tight on defense. Infield plays back. Ernie Clement is up. A ground ball could score a run with Varo on third. Clement lines a ball to center field. Kick Hernandez makes the catch. Here comes Vo. Hernandez is throw flatfooted. Has no chance. And the Blue Jays take advantage of the defensive misplay to make it three to one. And that’s no small item. And the Dodgers had rallied to cut it to half with that home run. Man, you could not have a better contrast right there. A mistake defensively for the Dodgers and then the Blue Jays immediately make him pay for it. Savages allowed one hit on a solo homer to Kik Hernandez and punched out six in three innings. And he got him. Struck him out on a slider. One out. I mean, it’s getting it’s getting ridiculous at this point. and he’s made one mistake to Kik Hernandez, but other than that, he’s been on for the majority of this game. That is eight strikeouts for Trey Savage. They might have seen him in game one, but they did not see this guy. This is almost like they’re facing a completely different guy with a completely different repertoire. Two strike pitch bounced to home plate and it hit Freeman. Slider was spiked. Got Freddy Freeman on the outside of his right leg and a lifeline to Freeman there as he’s on first after being behind 0 and2. So he’s now on first. So the tying run comes to the plate. Roll up the middle. Jimenez gets there has no play. Infield hit task of Hernandez and they’re first and second with two away. So the Dodgers trying to rally with two outs in this fourth inning. They’ve been searching for an inning to build. Now, the Dodgers had traffic in yesterday’s game, but went 0 for five with runners in scoring position. And that has been the single biggest issue in this World Series, these situations. Pop fly back of the Diamond and Trey Savage first time. There’s a little pressure against him does not break. They strand two. Following the backto-back homers to begin the game, both starters have been really impressive. And now we’ll see the rookie Trey Savage again who’s allowed a run on two hits. Three base runners total in four innings and he has struck out eight in his four innings of work. Starts the bottom of the fifth. Two-2 hit on the ground right side picked up at second by IKF. Throws to the covering you Savage for the out. Really heads up from the 22-year-old. Vlatty went after it. Ended up lifting his glove because he didn’t have as good of a chance as IKF. IKF delivered a nice throw to Savage on the run. One out. Here’s Kik Hernandez. The reason the Dodgers are on the board. He hit a solo homer in the third. Swinging a miss. Strike three. Got him on a splitter in the dirt. Nineks and four and two/3 for Treya Savage. Two down. Look at Treya Savage. Tons of confidence out there. Tons of swag. Fly out to center field. The first time for call. First start since the last game of the division series. Check swing pitch in the dirt. Appeal to first. He went. 10ks in five innings for Trey Savage. Onto the sixth inning we go. Blue Jays three. Dodgers one. 10 strikeouts for Treya Savage over the first five innings. The only time that’s ever been accomplished. Game one of the 1963 World Series at Yankee Stadium. That man right there, Sandy Kofax. Otani asks for time. He’s 0 for two in this game. Comebacker to the mound in a strikeout swinging and it’s ripped on a line to right. Charging. Barger dives. Did he get it? He did. Addison Barger racing to right center to rob a hit from Otani. Otani hit it a mere 117 m an hour and Barger had the wherewithal to make the play. One out. Making him do that. Trey Savage can do no wrong. They’re either missing or they’re hitting it and his defense making plays for him. Swinging a miss. Strike three. 11 Ks for Trey Savage. Two down in the bottom of the sixth. He’s shredding right now in game five. Well, he’s shredding and he is stomping around that mound out there. He has now tied Smokeoky Joe Wood for the most strikeouts in a World Series game for a pitcher 22 or younger. Smokey in 1912. Savage in 2025. On the ground at Chopper to third, charging Clement takes it on the high hop, slings to first. And that’s a one, two, three. Bottom of the sixth for Trey Savage. And Snell on 92 pitches will remain in this game. There is a right-hander up in the pen, but probably part of the reasoning. Bottom third of the Blue Jay order. Two left-handed hitters. Two up for the Blue Jays. Starting with Addison Barger in this top of the seven. Two, two, bounce left side and it sneaks through down the left field line. Barger tearing around first. Big turn. He’ll go back to the bag. They were shifting him away from third. So, he had a big gap in between Muny and the bag and he shot it. Call with a good play and left to get it back in. Leadoff single. He has reached base all three times in this game. Five. IKF takes in the dirt and Barger off on the dirt ball. Smith can’t find it. It’s right in front of home. Barger into second on a wild pitch. He took off early reading that the curveball was going to be spiked and Smith was spinning around as the ball was right in front of him. And now if Ker Fick can even just hit a ground ball to the right side, it’ll move Barger to third. The payoff pitch. Bouncing ball left side. Bets is there running through time. Runner stays at second and we’ll see if Andre Simenez can come up clutch again. Runner on second. One out top of the seventh inning. Packed out of his hand in his fourth walk of the game will set it up for the top of the order and likely end his night. No, Mark Prior instead has to buy a little time. I don’t I don’t know if if they would rather face Lucas here. Yeah. So, I guess the question is Snell against Schneider or Enriquez against Lucas, right? Blake Snell has looked good even though he’s deep into the start. 110 pitches. This is the last start of his season. Just let it eat to Davis Schneider. And then if Davis Schneider gets on base, you bring in the righty to face Vladimir Guerrero Jr. But one, two. Did it hit him? No, it just bounced off Smith and rolled away. And Barger with another great dirt ball. Reed takes off for third making a second wild pitch in the inning. Addison Barger has found his way from first to third on two spiked curve balls by Blake Snell. I mean, this kid just does it all. Everything. He is showing off everything in this ball game. A diving catch, couple of dirt ball reads, and now that very, very important fourth run of the ball game is standing at third base. A 3-2 to Davis Schneider with a change. And that will be the end of the line for Blake Snell. Dave Roberts will go down to his young flamethrowing righty Henriquez as Snell finishes off his night with his 7K. The hardth throwing righty faces Vladimir Guerrero Jr. with runners on first and third and two outs. Vlatty trying to cash in Barger. Payoff pitch to Vlad Jr. overthrows it to the back stop and here comes Barger. Four to one Toronto. A single and three wild pitches to allow Barger to go first to home. And that was not your typical Dodgers inning, but the fear of making a great pitch to a great hitter and the feeling that a manager has when he watches a runner go first, second, third, home without a hit. And the Blue Jays have the insurance with a pitcher on the mound who looks unhitable. Men is on second and Guerrero on first. They want to add more. Bette to the plate and the pitch is lined slicing down and right. Base hit coming around third. Jimenez Glatty going first to third. Jimenez in to score. Vlatty slides into third. RBI single. Bobette. It’s the Blue Jays five. The Dodgers won in the top of the seventh. And the Blue Jays have another multi-run inning. And for the second night in a row, a Dodger reliever comes in and the two inherited runners both come in. Treya Savage back out for a seventh inning. Has not allowed a base runner since the fourth. That was an infield hit. Only hit to the outfield he’s allowed all game was the TK homer in the third. Freddy Freeman leads off. One, two, pitch. Swing and a miss. Strike three. A dozen Ks for you Savage. And in the process, he sets a major league record. Most strikeouts at a World Series game ever by a rookie with 12. I mean, it just keeps getting better and better. What a performance so far from Treya Savage. This is going to be an infield hit for Taska Hernandez. It’s only the third hit tonight the Dodgers have been able to muster. Just a fourth base runner. This is the bottom of the seventh inning. And that’s why those two runs in the top of the seventh inning are so important for the Blue Jays. That changes the way Trey Savage is going to attack Tommy Edmond and potentially Max Muny behind him. He knows that these guys aren’t the tying run. So you want to throw strikes. You want to pound that strike zone. Chopper to third, Clement second, over the first double play. A World Series masterpiece. 543. You savage through seven and it’s 51 Blue Jays in game five of the World Series. About a month and a half ago, nobody outside of the most diehard Blue Jays fans or prospect fans would have known the name Treya Savage. Everybody going to know him now. 12 strikeouts in game five of the World Series and he holds the defending champions to just a run over seven innings. You don’t see this kind of thing, a guy this young and this inexperienced doing this on this stage. This doesn’t happen. This humbled young man has set some records that are going to be tough to match. He’s never going to forget that game and neither are the the fans of the Toronto Blue Jays. Extra base for Toronto. the biggest game of the Dodgers year and they have come out like it is the middle of summer with how sloppy they have played. Yep. It’s been a group effort instead of a double play. Runner on third one out again giving extra teams bases in 90 ft to any team but especially the best team in the American League and the best offense in baseball is bold strategy. Kind of pass the drawn in infield to make it six to one. single wild pitch productive hour and then kind of left his first hit of the World Series. He’s five runs. The Jays now lead by the way the Dodger offense going feels like 50. And the Blue Jays are an out away. Two down in the bottom of the ninth. Tay Oscar Hernandez, the former Blue Jays, the last hope for the Dodgers. Got him. Jeff Hoffman finishes it off and the Blue Jays come into LA. take two out of three here, beating them tonight 6-1 and they’re up three games to two in the World Series. What a ball game. Back-to- back home runs for the Blue Jays to start the game. Davis Schneider getting a start. Hit the first pitch against Blake Snell out of the ballpark. Vlatty went back to back. And what about Trey Savage? A historic start for the rookie. Seven innings, one run on three hits, no walks, and a record 12 strikeouts. And the Blue Jays indeed have a 32 lead in this World Series.
