Dodgers left-hander Ryu Hyun-jin became the first South Korean starter in a World Series but took the loss. "This is the biggest stage in baseball".

This series featured Mudcat Grant and Jim Kaat outdueling Don Drysdale and Sandy Koufax respectively in the first two games of the series. Kinsler grounds to first. "Over the course of 162 games you're going to need guys to pitch six or seven innings".

One of the great stories of these playoffs has been the work of Red Sox manager Alex Cora and the confidence his players have in him.

"We've got to keep fighting".

The Boston Red Sox are back on top, and that's meant trouble for opposing teams this October.

He's allowed just six hits in those two big wins and has his team halfway to the World Series. "I've gotten to pick his brain by texting and talking with him and he's a good dude".

Red Sox lefty David Price worked around a two-out walk and got Manny Machado on a popup to end the opening inning. He beat the Houston Astros in Houston. So I'm happy for that because he deserves it. "He's got a plus fastball with good command, he can change eye levels (and) he can pitch in and out".

The Red Sox have won 14 of their last 16 World Series games, dating to a four-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals in 2004.

The Red Sox are the clear favourites to win the series, being odds-on with most bookmakers. Of the 68 runs the Sox have scored this post season, 36 have come with two down. "We stressed him", Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. "We're not swinging the bats well".

The nippy weather is something the Dodgers haven't had to deal with much this season.

By the time the seventh-inning stretch rolled around on Wednesday, the wind chill was 2 degree C, foreign territory for the National League champs from California. As the FOX cameras panned to the Dodgers dugout, Los Angeles starters could be seen reaching for the warm embrace of winter jackets and ski caps as they awaited their turn at bat.

Other than the occasional cool summer night when they face the Giants in San Francisco, the Dodgers are blanketed in warmth, a reality not lost on Roberts. "Over at WhoWins.com, they tell us that teams in the Dodgers' position - i.e., down 2-0 in a best-of-seven series and having played Game 1 on the road - go on to win the series in question just 17.9 percent of the time".

There have been 10 teams in World Series history that have come back from being down 2-0 to win the title, and three of those comebacks have been made by the Dodgers, in 1981, 1965 and 1955.

Then, prior to Game 2, reliever Ryan Madson - a native of Long Beach, Calif. - maligned the mid-40s temps. Chris Taylor drew a walk to load the bases with nobody out and the Price who opened Game 2 of the American League Division Series against the Yankees would have been in serious trouble. Madson allowed all three of those to score as well in a Red Sox fifth inning that turned a 2-1 deficit to a 4-2 lead. It also signals that the bullpens will be vital in this series, as both did a lot of heavy lifting in Game 1.

"I take a lot of pride of being able to evolve from pitch to pitch, being able to adjust, and I did that really well", Price said. Despite giving up five runs in five innings, Buehler did not factor in the decision. Boston left the inning with a two-run lead. "To be wearing another uniform going in there playing for a World Series championship is going to be special for me".
