- At Dodger Stadium, the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-5 in an 18-inning Game 3 on Monday, with Freddie Freeman's 406-foot walk-off homer giving L.A. a 2-1 series lead.
- With star power on display, Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers two-way star, slugged two homers and reached base nine times Monday while George Springer, Toronto Blue Jays leadoff hitter, left with right-side discomfort.
- Most fans in the crowd of 52,654 stayed through the 11:50 p.m. finish as 19 pitchers combined for 609 pitches, with Will Klein, Dodgers reliever, throwing 72 and saying `We weren't losing that game`.
- With little time to rest, Shohei Ohtani is slated to start Tuesday while Toronto counters with Shane Bieber, and no off day arrives until Thursday if the series continues past Wednesday.
- Historically, the game matched the only other 18-inning World Series contest at Dodger Stadium seven years ago, and Freddie Freeman recorded his second World Series walk-off homer in two years.
