The World Series moves to Yankee Stadium for Game 3.

It’s a must-win for the Yankees, who enter the night trailing 2-0 in the best-of-seven series, and are running out of chances.

Clarke Schmidt takes the mound for the Bombers, and he’ll face off against LA’s Walker Buehler.

Dodgers slugger Shohei Ohtani is in the lineup hitting leadoff after leaving Game 2 with a shoulder injury.

Will the Bronx Bombers win at home, or will the Dodgers play spoiler on the road?

Yankees only have one hope to pull off Red Sox-like miracle

By Mike Vaccaro

Who’s going to play the part of Kevin Millar on Tuesday afternoon? Jazz Chisholm Jr.? Chisholm has Millar’s chattiness. Maybe it’ll be Gerrit Cole. Cole is a loud and ardent leader. He’s been known to take a bullet or two for a teammate or a manager.

Can the Yankees activate Nick Swisher?

Swisher would definitely do it.

“Don’t let us win tonight. This is a big game. They’ve got to win because if we win, we’ve got Cole coming back in Game 5 and then Rodon will pitch Game 6 and then you can take that fraud stuff and put it to bed. Don’t let the Yanks … Win. This. Game.”

The Dodgers are exposing the Yankees in every way in one-sided World Series

By Joel Sherman

The Yankees have a simple problem in this World Series. Everything they do well, the Dodgers do better — power, patience, pitching.

And then there is so much the Yankees do not do well, from running the bases to executing on defense, at which Los Angeles also excels.

Heck, the Dodgers even have the advantage in areas like the way louder home crowd, deeper bench and far superior trade deadline.

Aaron Judge’s playoff nightmare deepens with another disappearing act

By Mark Sanchez

Hints of progress arrived in the eighth, when Aaron Judge was more disciplined.

Against Ryan Brasier, he swung through two borderline pitches and the crowd grew disgruntled, ready to boo the Yankees captain with one more whiff.

But Judge laid off three straight sliders that slid outside the zone, reaching base on a walk that showed the process might be improving.

But “process” is for April and May and June. In October, results matter, and Judge has not found nearly enough.

Yankees crumbling in World Series is raising uncomfortable questions

By Jon Heyman

There’s still a game to go, and that likely isn’t good news for these Yankees. Through three games — all defeats — the Yankees are showing no indication they belong on the same field with the Dodgers, much less in a World Series with anyone.

The questions that must be asked now: Did they win a league that was unusually weak? And did we all (myself included) overrate them?

The Dodgers are killing them, and keep in mind LA is doing it with only three starting pitchers — one with an alleged lower-back concern that scared off these very Yankees, one who returned from shoulder woes and a third (Walker Buehler) who’d won only one game since returning midseason from his second Tommy John surgery — that is before shutting the Yankees down in the Dodgers’ 4-2 Game 3 win.

Aaron Judge: 'We can change everything' in Game 4

Nestor Cortes on the massive challenge Yankees face

By Christian Arnold

One thing that Aaron Boone and Nestor Cortes agreed on after tonight’s loss was the fact that the Yankees can’t get caught up with the mountain, which is the 0-3 hole they find themselves in.

The Yankees are down to their final life, but Cortes and Boone agreed the Bombers won't overcome anything if they are getting ahead of themselves.

"We can't win four games with one game," Cortes said. "Tomorrow we have to come in and win tomorrow. I think multiple times this year we've either swept a three-game or a four-game series. ... I don't think it's impossible. I know the numbers don't back it up. I know there hasn't been a World Series team that's come back from a 3-0 deficit, but we have an opportunity to write our own story."

Cortes is correct in the fact that no team has ever done what he hopes to see the Yankees do.

Yankees’ season on the brink after lifeless effort in Game 3 of World Series

By Greg Joyce

If the Yankees are going to come back to win the World Series, they will have to make history.

But on Monday, they only inched closer to being history.

Back home for The Bronx’s first World Series game in 15 years, one that Anthony Rizzo had called a “must-win game,” the Yankees turned in another dud, falling 4-2 to the Dodgers to go down 3-0 in the series in front of a sellout crowd of 49,368.

Yankees down 3-0 in World Series after loss

By Andrew Crane

Just about everything that could go wrong for the Yankees in Game 3 did with the exception of Alex Verdugo’s home run in the ninth, and now they’re down 3-0 in the World Series. Gleyber Torres grounded out to Tommy Edman to end the game.

The Dodgers emerged with a 4-2 win Monday at Yankee Stadium behind Walker Buehler’s five strong innings, and the Yankees couldn’t convert in critical spots against the bullpen.

( function() { var func = function() { var iframe = document.getElementById('wpcom-iframe-2609ebc786a5389dbdd9ae2899cd6907') if ( iframe ) { iframe.onload = function() { iframe.contentWindow.postMessage( { 'msg_type': 'poll_size', 'frame_id': 'wpcom-iframe-2609ebc786a5389dbdd9ae2899cd6907' }, "https:\/\/embeds.nypost.com" ); } } // Autosize iframe var funcSizeResponse = function( e ) { var origin = document.createElement( 'a' ); origin.href = e.origin; // Verify message origin if ( 'embeds.nypost.com' !== origin.host ) return; // Verify message is in a format we expect if ( 'object' !== typeof e.data || undefined === e.data.msg_type ) return; switch ( e.data.msg_type ) { case 'poll_size:response': var iframe = document.getElementById( e.data._request.frame_id ); if ( iframe && '' === iframe.width ) iframe.width = '100%'; if ( iframe && '' === iframe.height ) iframe.height = parseInt( e.data.height ); return; default: return; } } if ( 'function' === typeof window.addEventListener ) { window.addEventListener( 'message', funcSizeResponse, false ); } else if ( 'function' === typeof window.attachEvent ) { window.attachEvent( 'onmessage', funcSizeResponse ); } } if (document.readyState === 'complete') { func.apply(); /* compat for infinite scroll */ } else if ( document.addEventListener ) { document.addEventListener( 'DOMContentLoaded', func, false ); } else if ( document.attachEvent ) { document.attachEvent( 'onreadystatechange', func ); } } )();

Alex Verdugo ends shutout with two-run homer in ninth

By Andrew Crane

The Yankees only have one out to work with, but Alex Verdugo gave them a bit of life in the ninth inning.

He crushed a two-run homer over the right-field fence, scoring Anthony Rizzo and trimming the Yankees' deficit to 4-2.

( function() { var func = function() { var iframe = document.getElementById('wpcom-iframe-9564c4355119cbf125a9d0d15eb9e83c') if ( iframe ) { iframe.onload = function() { iframe.contentWindow.postMessage( { 'msg_type': 'poll_size', 'frame_id': 'wpcom-iframe-9564c4355119cbf125a9d0d15eb9e83c' }, "https:\/\/embeds.nypost.com" ); } } // Autosize iframe var funcSizeResponse = function( e ) { var origin = document.createElement( 'a' ); origin.href = e.origin; // Verify message origin if ( 'embeds.nypost.com' !== origin.host ) return; // Verify message is in a format we expect if ( 'object' !== typeof e.data || undefined === e.data.msg_type ) return; switch ( e.data.msg_type ) { case 'poll_size:response': var iframe = document.getElementById( e.data._request.frame_id ); if ( iframe && '' === iframe.width ) iframe.width = '100%'; if ( iframe && '' === iframe.height ) iframe.height = parseInt( e.data.height ); return; default: return; } } if ( 'function' === typeof window.addEventListener ) { window.addEventListener( 'message', funcSizeResponse, false ); } else if ( 'function' === typeof window.attachEvent ) { window.attachEvent( 'onmessage', funcSizeResponse ); } } if (document.readyState === 'complete') { func.apply(); /* compat for infinite scroll */ } else if ( document.addEventListener ) { document.addEventListener( 'DOMContentLoaded', func, false ); } else if ( document.attachEvent ) { document.attachEvent( 'onreadystatechange', func ); } } )();

Yankees have one more Game 3 chance as Stadium empties

By Christian Arnold

The vibes at Yankees have changed quite a bit from the excitement of pregame to where things stand in the ninth.

Some fans have started to make their way to the exits at Yankee Stadium with the feeling here becoming more frustrated as the night has wore on.

Yankee Stadium emptied late in Game 3 of the World Series on Oct. 28. Christian Arnold

The Yankees bats haven’t helped their cause as strikeouts in key opportunities have stifled any chance of getting a run across the plate, but they'll have one more chance in the ninth against Michael Kopech.
