Yesavage (3-1) picked up the win in Game 5 of the World Series against the Dodgers on Wednesday, allowing one earned run on three hits and no walks while striking out 12 batters in seven innings.
Analysis
Outside of the third-inning solo homer he gave up to Enrique Hernandez, Yesavage's performance Wednesday was nothing short of brilliant versus one of baseball's most dynamic offenses. The 22-year-old righty pounded the strike zone, throwing 71 of his 104 pitches for strikes, and he finished the night with a dozen punchouts -- the most any rookie has had in a World Series game. Now carrying a 3.46 ERA in the postseason, Yesavage is done starting games in 2025, but he's expected to be available out of the bullpen if the series goes to Game 7.
