In the first game of the 2020 World Series, Dodgers dominated Tampa Bay Rays and reached an 8-3 win. This was the organization’s most convincing World Series win since 1988 when they went and won the whole thing.

Dodgers were led by ace Clayton Kershaw, who bullied Rays’ batters throughout the entire contest. Kershaw retired 17 out of 18 final bats he faced while striking out eight. He finished the game with a 1.50 ERA, allowing one walk and just two hits in six innings.

“I think we are the best team, and I think our clubhouse believes that,” said Kershaw with confidence after the game.

All-Star Mookie Betts also gave his contribution, doing a little bit of everything to spark the Dodgers. This was especially the case in the fifth inning when Betts got a leadoff walk and two steals. He joined Babe Ruth as the only player in history to do this in a single inning in a World Series.

“He’s done just about everything,” said teammate Cody Bellinger off Betts’ efforts.

Game 1 was a good example of how LA Dodgers can be lethal when they are clicking on all cylinders. But they know that the job isn’t even close to being done as they try to work their way to their first World Series win in 32 years.

In a cold night at Fenway Park, the Red Sox led by JD Martinez, Eduardo Nunez, and Andrew Benintendi delivered two runs, three runs, and four hits respectively to help Boston win Game 1 of the seven-game series.

“Up and down the lineup there’s not an easy out. We’re going to grind out at-bats,” Benintendi said.

The Red Sox’s performance was strongly aided by Dodger’s Chris Sale and Clayton Kershaw’s poor performance. Maybe it was the cold, or perhaps it was just a bad game for Los Angeles. But their players failed to ignite a performance good enough to hold off a splendid Boston side.

The Red Sox are in the World Series for the fourth time in 15 years and have emerged the winners in the past three appearances (2004, 2007 and 2013). The Dodgers are in the competition for the second year in a row but are yet to win the competition since 1988.

The World Series continues on Wednesday night, and the temperatures are expected to be colder than on Tuesday.
