World Series Game 1: Yankees-Dodgers live updates

Yankees take 3-2 lead

Another Game 1 for the books

Will Dodgers walk it off?

LOS ANGELES -- Can Los Angeles secure the win in the bottom of the ninth or are we headed to extra innings? Stay tuned.

Yankees don't score in the 9th

Blake Treinen just completed a great sequence against Aaron Judge, who got into an 0-2 hole after Treinen froze him with two sweepers. After Judge laid off a pitch outside the zone and then fouled another off, Treinen got him to pop up on the only fastball he saw. Great move by Dodgers manager Dave Roberts going to Treinen there instead of leaving Kopech in. -- Jesse Rogers

Treinen in to face Judge

Aaron Judge is 1-for-4 with three strikeouts on the night.

And we have a tie game!

Mookie Betts' sacrifice fly to center with one out scores Shohei Ohtani to tie the game 2-2 in the bottom of the eighth.

Ohtani gets his first hit of the World Series

Shohei Ohtani hits a double off the right-field wall and then is able to take third when the throw from Juan Soto to second gets away from Gleyber Torres. The Dodgers have the tying run 90 feet away. Closer Luke Weaver is in for the Yankees. Can L.A. capitalize on its momentum?

Cole did his job for NY

Gerrit Cole's first World Series start as a Yankee was a success. The reigning AL Cy Young Award winner allowed one run over six-plus innings. He gave up four hits and didn't walk a batter. He was pulled after Teoscar Hernández lined his 88th pitch for a leadoff single in the sixth. It was a class in efficiency, leaving the Yankees bullpen to take down 12 outs to secure a win in Game 1. -- Jorge Castillo

Dodgers miss another scoring opportunity

Another premium run-scoring chance, another spoiled opportunity by the Dodgers. This time, thanks to a perfect Enrique Hernandez bunt with Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo creeping close to him, they had runners on second and third with one out in the seventh, still trailing by a run. The next batter, Will Smith, was late on an inside fastball by Clay Holmes and hit a soft pop-up to the infield on the first pitch he saw. Tommy Kahnle then came in out of the bullpen and got Gavin Lux to ground out on his exceedingly oft-used changeup -- a pitch he has thrown 50 consecutive times. No, that is not a typo. -- Alden Gonzalez

What a night for the Yankees' ace

Gerrit Cole's efficiency in Game 1 has been his hallmark. He finished the sixth inning with only 80 pitches, and Yankees manager Aaron Boone was willing to send him back out to face the top of the Dodgers' lineup for a third time -- the same thing that Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts did with Jack Flaherty and wound up with the Dodgers trailing.

Flaherty's ability to generate swings and misses, though, far outpaced Cole all night, and Cole's impressive showing thus far -- six innings, three hits, one run, no walks, four strikeouts -- is even more so considering his lack of whiffs. Of Cole's 80 pitches, he has gotten only eight swinging strikes. The Dodgers have fouled off 20 pitches and put 17 in play. The most recent two, a great snag on a Mookie Betts one-hopper by Jazz Chisholm at third and a Freddie Freeman warning-track shot, helped Cole escape a jam with one out and a runner on third.

At the same time, Clay Holmes is warning for the Yankees. Cole has avoided trouble. Boone could pull him before he gets into any -- or at least have Holmes there if a runner gets on. -- Jeff Passan

Yankees get out of jam

Tommy Edman led off the bottom of the sixth with a scorching double down the right-field line, putting himself in scoring position for the top of the order and giving the Dodgers a premium opportunity to score runs in their third look at Gerrit Cole. But Cole somehow escaped unscathed. Shohei Ohtani hit a slow roller, Mookie Betts was retired on a 99-mph one-hopper and Freddie Freeman flied out. The top three of the Dodgers' lineup was billed as one of the greatest in history. For much of this season, it acted as such. But it came up short at a key time in Game 1 of the World Series. -- Alden Gonzalez

Stanton is unmatched in October

Giancarlo Stanton has done it again.

The slugger whipped out his 9-iron and launched a curveball from Jack Flaherty for a towering two-run home run to give the Yankees a 2-1 lead in the sixth inning. The home run's 6.54-second hang time is the second longest in the World Series in the Statcast Era (since 2015), according to ESPN Research. Stanton has now homered in four straight postseason games for the second time in his career. All four home runs have come with two strikes. His 17 career postseason home runs are one shy of Mickey Mantle for third most in Yankees history. The ALCS MVP, a Los Angeles area native, continues mashing in October. -- Jorge Castillo

Stanton's 2-run HR gives Yankees lead

Dodgers get on the board first

The scoreless game is no more.

After Kiké Hernández shot a triple into the right-field corner on a pretty good 0-2 pitch from Gerrit Cole -- high in the zone, on the outside corner -- Will Smith lofted a ball to right field. Juan Soto set up, charged, caught it and fired to home. The throw was just late to get Hernández, who slid to the outside of home plate and plated the first run of the World Series. The Dodgers have only two hits -- both triples, both poorly played by Yankees outfielders -- and the second helped give them a 1-0 lead. -- Jeff Passan
