After three straight defeats against Los Angeles, New York reacted on Tuesday during Game 4 of the World Series, winning largely at home (11-4).
The New York Yankees saved their honor by winning their first game of the 2024 World Series on Tuesday at home against the Los Angeles Dodgers, who lead 3-1 and remain one win away from the North American baseball league title.
With their backs against the wall since their third defeat Monday evening in New York in this best-of-seven-match series, the Yankees reacted in front of their audience with great success (11-4), thanks in particular to a grand slam (home run while the bases are full, which brings 4 points) from young Anthony Volpe (23 years old) during the 3rd inning.
The New York franchise with a record 27 titles is on a mission to achieve an unprecedented comeback, with no team trailing 3-0 during the World Series having managed to turn the situation around. However, they are the first in 54 years to force a game 5 after being down 3-0.
The Yankees host one last meeting in their stadium on Wednesday before, if they manage to win, a potential Game 6 in Los Angeles on Friday.
Despite the loss, Freddy Freeman of the Dodgers became the first player to hit a home run in the first four games of a World Series.
