Dodgers vs. Yankees game time, TV channels

NEW YORK – World Series Game 5 will decide what will be left after midnight on Wednesday night: champagne or suitcases.

The New York Yankees extended what appeared to be a dormant World Series with a loss in Game 4 and now play their third and final home game at Yankee Stadium with their season once again on the line. Coming from a 3-1 deficit against the Los Angeles Dodgers, they'll take on top team Gerrit Cole four days after his solid six-inning win in Game 1.

The Dodgers will counter with Jack Flaherty, who was dominant in Game 1 before giving up Giancarlo Stanton's go-ahead two-run home run in the sixth. Ultimately, the Dodgers won on Freddie Freeman's walk-off grand slam, and he hasn't stopped hitting home runs since.

Maybe the Yankees will hit the bat that has gone deep in all four games and give the Dodgers a 2-0 lead in the first inning in Games 3 and 4.

The Dodgers are seeking their eighth title in franchise history, their first since 2020 and their first full season since 1988.

A Yankee win and it's back to LA, where the Dodgers hold a 3-2 lead on Friday night.
