Freddie Freeman, playing first base for the Dodgers, has been a consistent performer across the board. Despite a slow start in one of the previous games where he recorded an average of .000, his ability to bounce back was evident in another game where he hit a home run and brought in three RBIs, showcasing his resilience and skill. On average over the last three games, Freeman's batting has been crucial for the Dodgers' offense.


On the mound for the Dodgers, Michael Grove stands out as a starting pitcher with an ERA of 0.0 across two games, highlighting his dominance on the field. His pitching prowess will be vital for the Dodgers as they face a strong Yankees lineup.

The Yankees' Aaron Judge, an outfielder known for his power-hitting capabilities, has maintained an impressive .667 batting average in one of the past games, including slugging at 1.000. His performance at bat could be a game-changer in the upcoming match.


Giancarlo Stanton also brings firepower to the Yankees' designated hitter position. With a .500 batting average in one of his recent outings and an ability to drive in runs, Stanton's presence adds depth to the Yankees' offensive strategy.
