Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s ridiculous postseason streak reaches historic territory

Yoshinobu Yamamoto delivered a dominant performance for the Los Angeles Dodgers in their 3-1 Game 3 victory over the Atlanta Braves, moving his team within one win of the National League Championship Series. The right-hander struck out a career-high 10 batters over seven innings while surrendering only one run and one walk.

This outing marked the fifth consecutive postseason appearance in which Yamamoto earned a win while maintaining those specific efficiency metrics, all of which occurred in away games. Furthermore, Yamamoto remains undefeated in his career when provided with at least three runs of support.

The Braves managed their lone run in the fifth inning following a groundout by Drake Baldwin, but they were unable to overcome the pitching deficit.
