Tonight is Game 5 of the World Series. Clayton Kershaw will take the ball for Los Angeles and will face Dallas Keuchel in a promising pitchers’ duel.
The Dodgers and Astros were deadlocked in a pitchers’ duel until the sixth when George Springer broke up Alex Wood‘s no-hitter with a home run. The Dodgers tied the game the following inning and took the lead in the ninth with a big inning off Ken Giles. They’re in a prime position to take the series lead tomorrow with Clayton Kershaw on the mound.
