  • Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit a pivotal two-run homer, while Shohei Ohtani made his World Series pitching debut but struggled.
  • Shane Bieber pitched effectively for the Blue Jays, allowing only one run over 5.1 innings.

  • Game 5 is set for Wednesday at Dodger Stadium.

The Toronto Blue Jays evened the World Series at two games apiece with a convincing 6-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4, largely thanks to a critical two-run homer from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. off Dodgers pitcher Shohei Ohtani in the third inning. This marked the seventh postseason home run for Guerrero and underscored the Blue Jays' ability to rebound from their heartbreaking 18-inning loss the night before, which put them under significant pressure going into Game 4, according to SFGate and NPR.

Meanwhile, Ohtani's performance, deemed as a monumental moment as he made his World Series pitching debut, ended in disappointment. He pitched into the seventh inning, allowing four earned runs while striking out six batters. Despite having reached base nine times in the previous game, he struggled offensively, going 0-for-3 at the plate in Game 4, as reported by Reuters and BBC.

Shane Bieber took the mound for the Blue Jays, delivering a solid performance that saw him allow just one run over 5.1 innings. His efforts contrasted sharply with the Dodgers, who have now scored just three runs over their last 20 innings. His performance helped reclaim homefield advantage for the Blue Jays, ensuring the trophy will be contested back in Toronto, according to SCMP and Al Jazeera.

The decisive moments of the game came in the seventh inning when the Blue Jays scored four runs, with contributions from Andrés Giménez, Bo Bichette, and Addison Barger, showcasing a powerful offensive display against a worn Dodgers bullpen. This effectively silenced a Dodger Stadium crowd that had been buoyed by the team's recent successes, according to Reuters and SFGate.

Looking ahead, Game 5 is scheduled for Wednesday at Dodger Stadium, with both teams hoping to capitalize on their strengths and push towards victory in this closely contested World Series, as noted by multiple sources including SCMP and BBC.
