Yankees vs Dodgers Game 2 of the World Series: pitchers, lineups, stats, etc.
The first game of the 2024 Major League Baseball World Series ended dramatically with a bases-loaded home run in the bottom of the 10th, while the team’s best player struggled at the plate. Freddie Freeman rose to the occasion, delivering a Hollywood-style moment.
The pitchers dominated early, with Jack Flaherty and Gerrit Cole performing well until they wore down. However, the final inning was chaotic, filled with mistakes and multiple runs scored. It was a Game both teams felt they deserved to win.
A single out would have saved the Yankees, but a lapse in concentration allowed them to lose a one-run lead in the bottom of the 10th. This Game exceeded all World Series expectations, and hopefully, the upcoming Games will be just as thrilling.

New York Yankees
Pitcher
The New York Yankees have announced that left-handed pitcher Carlos Rodón will start in Game 2 of the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Brendan Kuty from The Athletic reports that Rodón has confirmed his role, indicating that he has been informed he will indeed take the mound on Saturday.
Rodón has proven to be the logical choice to follow Game 1 starter Gerrit Cole, given his postseason performance. In three starts during the playoffs so far, he has recorded a 4.40 ERA, demonstrating both his ability to strike out batters and control his pitches with an impressive strikeout-to-walk ratio of 22:1 across 14.1 innings pitched.
Lineup
Los Angeles Dodgers
Pitcher
Yamamoto will start Saturday in Game 2 of the World Series versus the Yankees, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Yamamoto has allowed seven earned runs over just 12.1 innings across his three postseason appearances and will be facing a Yankees offense that has posted a .759 OPS during their playoff run. Nevertheless, the 26-year-old righty found success against the Pinstripes when he faced them in June, throwing seven shutout innings while allowing just two hits and two walks.
