Some people complain that the Dodgers are trying to buy a World Series, but as Monday showed, it’s not that easy.

Snell allowed back-to-back homers to Davis Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero Jr., the first back-to-back leadoff homers ever in a Series game. Each of the first three pitches were fastballs, and Snell’s next 22 pitches after that were offspeed.

As Blake Snell got hot in September, so did the rest of the Dodgers' resurgent rotation. The momentum has carried the team to the brink of a second consecutive World Series title.

The Blue Jays' first two hitters Davis Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. made World Series history in attacking Blake Snell early.

Blake Snell didn't do the Dodgers any favours when he allowed the first two Toronto Blue Jays hitters to both hit home runs, giving the Blue Jays a lead they would never relinquish. However, Snell's postgame comments should infuriate Blue Jays fans.

Game 5 of the World Series was supposed to be Blake Snell’s night of redemption because when he last played against the Jays in Game 1, his performance was not elite. In 5 innings, Snell threw 100 pitches and gave up two runs in three walks,
