Shohei Ohtani of the Dodgers posted a game score of 102 to move into third place in the Baseball Musings Batter Rankings. He reached base nine times. His first four hits, two doubles and two home runs caused the Blue Jays to walk him in his next five plate appearances, four of them intentional walks. His 102 is the highest since 1920 and likely the highest of all time, and he joins Albert Pujols as the only two players to reach 100. It’s only the 16th World Series Game Score of 90 or better, and Ohtani is the the only player with two of them.
George Springer of the Blue Jays drops to fourth after an 0 for 3 with two strikeouts, leaving the game after one pitch in his fourth plate appearance with an injury. His replacements did go two for six in the game.
Aaron Judge of the Yankees, Cal Raleigh of the Mariners, and Michael Busch of the Cubs rank 1, 2, and 5 respectively.
