"One run on eight hits was the final box score statistic for the Blue Jays last night. Yoshinobu Yamamoto did exactly what we knew he would do; he gave up one earned run on five hits, walking one and striking out six. Yamamoto only lasted six innings. The Blue Jays had three innings of relief options to play with; they got into the Dodgers' bullpen as they should have."
"In total, the Blue Jays left eight runners on base, and they were 1 for 9 with runners in scoring position. That being said, there was no small-ball attempt, nor was there probably a good opportunity for it. Toronto had multiple opportunities to tie the ball in at minimum; with two runners on base, they had three chances to win the game with a home run."
Game 6 featured generally sound fundamentals but several plays were amplified by the stakes. There was only one recorded error, committed by the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Blue Jays scored one run on eight hits while Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed one earned run on five hits, walking one and striking out six over six innings. Toronto reached the Dodgers' bullpen and had three hits off three relievers yet scored zero runs, leaving eight runners on base and going 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position. No small-ball adjustments were made, and a baserunning lapse resulted in a double-off to end the game.
