[Applause] And it is Roki Sasaki in this game in the eighth and he will face Kyle Schwarber, Bryce Harper and Alec Balm. Kyle Schwarber highf fly ball to right center. Going to hang up there for Hernandez. And a big out for Sasaki to start it. Harper pops it up. Kik Hernandez is out. Pah and Hernandez. And it’s Kik who makes the play. And now it’s Alec Bow with two away up the middle right there. Tali Edmond. The throw is a good one. And it’s a three up, three down for Roki Sasaki, an emerging star. Sasaki is back out for the ninth. And first ball swinging and Brandon Marsh is retired. Sasaki is mowing through the Philly’s batting order and he strikes out Real Muto. Blows him away with a fast ball at 100 m an hour. It’s unbelievable. Three splitters in a row. 88 all coming in and then just paints you 100 away. There’s not a whole lot you can do right there. Tip your cap. Here’s a one, two. Kepler pops it up. Hernandez wants it. He’s got it. And Roki Sasaki, six up, six down. Sasaki deals a one, two. Castles on the ground. They had a man right there. Perfectly positioned. Muny with a strong throw. Here’s another two- two. Did he go? He did. It’s a strike out for Sasaki. Cannot overstate how Sasaki’s impact right now changes everything for the Dodgers. Turner into right field and Hernandez makes the play. Inning is over. One, two, three for Sasaki. Nine in a row for Roki. Tanner Scott now into this game in the ninth inning. High in the air, playable in left center field for Pes. One gone. sits him down with 97. [Applause] That’s a win for LA. Massive pitch. Came back with the slider. Got him to swing and miss. First two pitches. Get strike three and a big bat. Suarez. 49 home runs on the year to end this game. It’s Kepler with two on and two out. Strike one. Got the call that time and it’s 0 and two. popped up left side. The Dodgers pitch a shut out and take the finale from the Phillies five to nothing. He’s an everyday guy that can create a lot of problems hitting in that middle of the lineup. Yo, Rushing hits it high in the air to right field and deep and this ball is gone. The big swing that Dalton Rushing has been waiting for. Ties the game at three. Second big league home run, but the first one off of a pitcher. Single from Pah. Walk from Conforto. 32 to Rushing. launches a fly ball to right field. Tatis going back. He’s at the wall. Dalton Rushing’s biggest big league swing. He’s broken the tie with a seventh inning home run against Estrada in one of the biggest games of the season. The rookie as part of a frustrating season has his finest moment yet. Got him. Throw down to third. Strike him out. Throw him out. Double play. It’s a great snap throw from rushing right from his knees. Just very confident. Young man was out here early. I think it was yesterday. He was throwing a little bit. That is just a knee to knee stride and very routine that accurate throw. 26-year-old in his third season. Now goes up the middle. There’s Kim again. A jump throw Jeteresque. Wow. Human highlight reel has Song Kim. Beautiful play. This one more exceptional than the last. What a pick from Freddy. But the highlight is at the beginning right here. Holy smokes. Jumps out of the camera. That’s fun to watch. So is that smile. He is strong. He’s jacked. Yeah, he’s put together. Smashes this ball to right center field. Butler’s on the run. He turns and watches it fly. Hon Kim. A major league home run and a tie game in the fifth. It’s not just speed. He’s huge on this 22. He smokes a liner up the middle that’s caught by Kim and a diving attempt at a double play comes up short. Wants Dave Roberts to take a look. Yeah, that one. What do you think? I can’t see the monitor. Oh, he got him. Look at both of us leaning in with our noses on the monitor on this sunny day. That is going to be a big double play. [Applause] Oh, a highlight double play for the Dodger. Shortstop. River Ryan. Excellent debut. Five and a third. One unearned run against the Giants. You know, his second start in the big leagues. Looking for his first win. Contact and not liking it. Swing and a miss. He’s got his first K. Worked hard from the 0 and2 count to get a swing and miss with the sweeper or the breaking ball, but ended up going back to the fast ball to get this strike out. back door breaking pitch to get him looking and backto-back Kes to open the second for Ryan. This is a very good sharp breaking ball. It’s not only going to be a strike, but it’s got depth and late break. Back door. Came through there and got strike three. Comes home with an 02 and strikes out. Bregman puts his foot down and man, you blink and the inning’s over. is 2-2 swing and a miss and a ball that gets to the back stop. Ricochets right to Austin Barnes and they get Alvarez changing and morphing into what he needs to do. Strikes out Pñena River Ryan. Four no hit innings dueling nos for these rookies through four. He’s got six Ks. Here it comes. It is a back foot slider to get him. Huge strikeout for River Ryan. His seventh one today is his biggest one yet. To Fido, he struck him out. River Ryan with a roar. Five scoreless innings against the Astros. 91 pitches though. 15 more than he’s thrown in a pro game and he’s saying to Dave Roberts, “Let me go after him.” Doc says, “Not this time.” What a start it was for River Ryan against the Houston Astros. Five and 23. drive at second his responsibility, but to this point dominance and nothing against him. And they’re right there. Here’s the 3-2 on the way. High fly to deep right. That was belted. Way back goes Thomas. Forget it. It’s a home run for Freeland. His fifth of the year. RBI’s 36 and 37. Quickly two nothing Oklahoma City in the top of the first inning. Great start for the Comets in the ninth. The 01 on the way to Freeland. High drive in a deep right field. Going back is Thomas. And this game is tied on a three-run home run by Freeland. His second homer of the game. What about this ball game? Oh, baby. And that’s a base hit into the left field for Alex Freeland. Conforto scores. Edmund cuts second and heads to third. Three nothing Dodgers. I mean, just great at bats. Super small sample size. just his second game is just his ability to recognize, get a pitch that he can drive. And I love the swing. Not trying to pull this pitch. He sees the gap. Flared into shadow right field. Freeland’s out. Over the shoulder, blocks it. Alex Freeland. What a play. Fantastic. A lot of times you talk about great route running by outfielders, but this is an infielder from second base that can play all over the field showing his glove works anywhere. Got a wow from Kershaw. Dodgers still looking for their first base runner against him. Here’s 2-1. Freeland scorches one down the line. It is gone. Alex Freeland’s first career home run is off of you Darvish. And it’s given the Dodgers the early lead in this rivalry matchup. Everybody excited for the young man. And boy, he hit that hanging breaking ball a long way.

For all the heroics from star players like Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Mookie Betts, Los Angeles’ less-heralded players came up huge throughout the regular season and postseason to secure a second straight Fall Classic victory. Here are six Dodgers who could be poised to make a big impact in 2026.
