The Dodgers bullpen stored the Yankees silent. Anthony Banda completed the sixth, whereas Brusdar Graterol pitched the seventh. Alex Vesia threw a scoreless eighth inning, and Michael Kopech and Blake Treinen mixed for a scoreless ninth.
Kopech acquired the primary two outs of the ninth, earlier than permitting a giant hit to Gleyber Torres. It seemed like Torres’ hit was going over the wall, however a fan reached into play and caught it. After evaluation, the umpires stated it was fan interference and a double.
The Dodgers elected to deliberately stroll Juan Soto to face Aaron Decide, and introduced in Treinen. Decide then popped out to finish the inning.
Within the backside of the ninth inning, the Dodgers had been retired so as, and World Collection Sport 1 went to extras.
