Three of them come in a three-run rally against Blue Jays starting pitcher Kevin Gausman, with Will Smith’s two-out double and Mookie Betts’ two-run single producing all the runs they needed to
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts did not commit to making any changes to his lineup ahead of Game 6.
Sauer, 26, joined the Dodgers last offseason on a minor league deal. He was initially supposed to be non-roster depth but ended up making the team’s Opening Day roster for the Japan Series. He didn’t pitch in either of the two games, though, and then re-opened the season in Triple-A.
