Yoshinobu Yamamoto of the Dodgers pitches a second complete game victory in game two of the 2025 World Series, as Los Angeles defeats Toronto 5-1. Yamamoto walked none and struck out eight, giving up four hits. All the hits came early in the game.

As John Smoltz mentioned in the broadcast, this ranks as a very significant feat, since the last pitchers to do this did it in an era when complete game were more expected. The two games also fly in the face of avoiding the third time through the lineup strategy, as his last hit allowed in this game came in the bottom of the third inning.

The Dodgers now hold home field advantage as they head to Los Angeles for games Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.
