The Los Angeles Dodgers take on the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 2 of the 2025 World Series at Rogers Centre on Saturday, with the opening pitch at 8:00 PM ET on FOX. Toronto leads the series 1–0 after an 11–4 win in Game 1, breaking the game open with nine runs in the sixth inning. The Dodgers look to even the series before heading home for Game 3. Hitting the winning home run with our MLB picks.

Los Angeles Dodgers Preview

Los Angeles started Game 1 strong but couldn’t hold momentum once the bullpen entered. Shohei Ohtani hit his sixth home run of the postseason, and Freddie Freeman added two hits. Will Smith has been a steady bat all playoffs, though the rest of the lineup went quiet, finishing 1-for-15 in the bottom half of the order.

The Dodgers need better defense after two costly errors in the opener. Better pitching from the bullpen will be the focus after giving up 14 hits on Friday. Keeping runners off the bases and strong innings from Yoshinobu Yamamoto are musts. With the bullpen’s arms tired, a longer outing from Yamamoto is a must for the Dodgers in Game 2.

Toronto Blue Jays Preview

Toronto’s bats stayed hot in Game 1, piling up 14 hits. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. continues to lead the charge, hitting .447 in the postseason. Alejandro Kirk chipped in three hits, including a two-run homer, while Daulton Varsho added a solo shot. Rookie Addison Barger’s pinch-hit grand slam sealed the win and gave the Blue Jays the momentum heading into Game 2.

The Blue Jays have now scored first in five of their last six postseason games. The defense has been solid, and the bullpen remains rested after limited work in Game 1. Toronto’s approach of steady contact at the plate, combined with power at key times, has been the key to its playoff success and will be the same for Game 2.

Pitching Matchup

Los Angeles: Yoshinobu Yamamoto (4–1, 2.82 ERA)

Toronto: Kevin Gausman (2–1, 2.00 ERA)

Yamamoto has relied on pinpoint command and a hard splitter to get swings and misses. Gausman’s splitter has been just as sharp, helping him keep opponents quiet across his three postseason starts. Both pitchers have handled big games well, but Gausman’s pitching at home and recent form give Toronto a slight edge.

Los Angeles Dodgers at Toronto Blue Jays Prediction

The Dodgers need a bounce-back effort on the mound and more production from the bottom of the order. Toronto’s lineup and home field give it the advantage in what should be a closer game. Toronto will once again score late and take a 2-0 series lead with a win on Saturday. Final Score Prediction: Toronto Blue Jays win 5–3.
