The Los Angeles Dodgers are one win away from clinching their second World Series in five years, after a 4-2 victory over the New York Yankees in the Bronx gave them a 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.
There were few home comforts to be found at Yankee Stadium as the Dodgers again proved superior at the plate and on the mound, taking an early lead which they never surrendered.
The series continues this evening at Yankee Stadium, with the hosts needing to win to avoid a humiliating 4-0 sweep.
No team has ever come from 3-0 down to win a World Series.
Indeed, only once has a team trailed 3-0 and won any MLB seven-game play-off series, when the Boston Red Sox overhauled the Yankees 4-3 in the 2004 American League Championship Series.
