The Yankees hold off a World Series victory, forcing Game 5 against the Dodgers

You can't complete the comeback from a 3-0 deficit if you don't win your first game.

Well, the New York Yankees survived another day, winning Game 4 of the World Series with an 11-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Freddie Freeman, of course, led the way with a two-run home run in the first, but the Yanks cut the deficit in half after Alex Verdugo plated in a run on a fielder's choice. But in the next inning, Anthony Volpe delivered a big blow with a grand slam that gave the Yankees a 5-2 lead, their first since Game 1.

Los Angeles got two more in the fifth thanks to a short ball, and the Yankees missed a golden chance after getting their first two hitters on base at the bottom of the field but failing to score. However, Austin Wells made up for it by hitting a long solo home run in the sixth.

The Dodgers tied it in the seventh, but Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freeman all retired, and the Yanks got plenty of safety in the eighth.

Volpe scored on a play at the plate off Verdugo's bat, and then Gleyber Torres hit a three-run home run, his first of October, to make the game 10-4. Even Aaron Judge delivered an RBI single for his first drive of the World Series, capping a five-run eighth inning. The Yankees had scored just seven runs combined in the first three games.

Luis Gil lasted four innings, but five Yankee relievers combined for five scoreless innings, allowing just one hit, one walk and seven strikeouts.

YANKEES FANS TRY TO PULL THE GLOVE OFF MOOKIE BETTS' HAND TO TAKE THE BALL OUT

Of course, the Yankees are trying to become the second team in MLB history to pull off a comeback from a 3-0 deficit, something only the 2004 Boston Red Sox have accomplished against the Yankees in this year's ALCS – perhaps Volpe, a native New Jersey man who did it in the 2009 Yankees World Series parade could be this year's version of Dave Roberts, who manages the Dodgers and sparked the comeback 20 years ago.

Game 5 is back in the Bronx and the Yankees have some momentum – they'll have reigning Cy Young Award winner Gerrit Cole on the mound, while the Dodgers will have Jack Flaherty returning the pitch.

A win would mark the first time a Fall Classic would be moved to a Game 6 after a team took a 3-0 lead – that contest would be held again Friday night in Los Angeles.

It's safe to say the pressure is on.
