Ohtani's 12 total bases tied him with Reggie Jackson and Babe Ruth for the third most in a single World Series contest. Albert Pujols delivered 14 total bases in Game 3 of the 2011 Fall Classic, while Pablo Sandoval delivered 13 as part of Game 1 in 2012.
Ohtani and Freddie Freeman tied the game with a fifth-inning rally. Toronto responded again with an all-time hustle play from Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who scored from first base on a Bo Bichette single and barely beat an iffy throw home.

The longest game in World Series history took place in 2018, when the Dodgers beat the Boston Red Sox on Max Muncy's home run in the 18th inning of Game 3 right here at Dodger Stadium. Prior to the 2018 record-setting affair, the longest World Series game was 14 innings, happening in 1916, 2005 and 2015.
It lasted 18 innings and ended on another Freddie Freeman walk-off home run, just like Game 1 of last year's World Series. This one was a solo shot to dead center field. The thousands of fans who were still in attendance shot to their feet and roared, soon serenaded with "I love L.A." It was a 6-5 Dodgers win in 18 innings.
As the World Series captivates the baseball world, front office officials are seeking the players that will help bolster their own teams and, potentially, earn them a spot in next year's Fall Classic.
For now, the Mexican has all the credentials to easily contend for the top individual honor at the Fall Classic.
