The 2020 World Series continues on Tuesday at the Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The Los Angeles Dodgers have been one win away from their first championship since 1988, winning five games on the Tampa Bay Rays (LA4, TB2). The Rays are looking to push to the crucial Game 7 on Wednesday. Here’s how you can watch Game 6.
As always, both clubs announced their initial lineups just hours before the first pitch. Kevin Cash is sending the first nine ray manager in gaming here. Tampa is a two-way team and will be batting at the top of each inning.
- 1B G-Man Choi (LHB)
- LF Randy Arozerena (RHB)
- DH in Stein Meadows (LHB)
- 2B Brandon Lowe (LHB)
- RF Manual Margot (RHB)
- 3B Joy Wendell (LHB)
- S.S. Willie Adams (RHB)
- CF Kevin Kiermer (LHB)
- C. Mike Zunino (RHB)
SP Black Snell
Cash stacks his lineup with Tony Gonsolin vs. Lefties. Choi is an unconventional leadoff hitter, to be sure, but it’s a career .257 / .357 / .478 Heather against Right, so it’s such a good choice to set the table as any. M.L.B. In his short career, Gonsolin has lefties up to the .192 / .244 / .298 batting line and the .190 / .241 / .311 line.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Julio Urius and Clayton Kershaw will not be available in Game 6, but Los Angeles still has four lefties in their bullpen: Victor Gonzalez, Adam Colerack, Jack McGee and Alex Wood. Of course, Renault is the figure to face those left-handed relievers with right pinch-hitters like Mike Broso, Yandi Diaz and Hunter Ranfro.
Now here’s the start lineup Roberts will use in Game 6:
- RF put bets (RHB)
- S.S. Corey Seagull (LHB)
- 3B Justin Turner (RHB)
- 1B Max Muncie (LHB)
- DH Will Smith (RHB)
- CF Cody Bellinger (LHB)
- 2B Chris Taylor (RHB)
- LF AJ Pollock (RHB)
- Sea Austin Barnes (RHB)
SP Tony Gonsolin
A fairly standard lineup for dodgers, only D.H. Smith on and Barnes behind the plate. Pollock gets a start opposite Lefty Snell, which means Jock Pederson is on the bench available for a pinch-hit in the late innings. Enrique Hernandez also looms.
