Richard recaps Game 2 of the 2025 World Series, with Los Angeles Dodgers ace pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto delivering a stand-out performance that's put him in company with Dodger pitching legends — and that evens the series against the Blue Jays at 1-1.

Then, we revisit our portrait of Yamamoto from last season, "Yo Yo Yamamoto!": "Yoshinobu Yamamoto was supposed to be the Dodgers golden boy in 2024. But he missed most of the season with a rotator cuff injury. His return comes at a time of uncertainty for the Dodgers starting rotation, in the middle of the fight for the NL West title, with October just around the corner."

As the World Series heads to the Bronx for game 3 tonight, October 28, 2024, let's take a look back on the story of the first two games, which were played in L.A.

(And Richard called it.)
