The 2025 World Series now shifts to Dodger Stadium on Monday night and the Los Angeles Dodgers hope it's a good omen.

Tyler Glasnow will start for the Dodgers against veteran Max Scherzer for the Toronto Blue Jays.

The best-of-seven series is split with the Dodgers and Blue Jays owning one win apiece. The Blue Jays got to Dodgers starter Blake Snell and the Dodgers bullpen en route to an 11-4 Game 1 blowout. 

That was followed up by Yoshinobu Yamamoto's complete-game effort in Game 2, a 5-1 LA victory.

The scene shifts, now, to the City of Angels for the next three games. Los Angeles has a chance to secure its second straight World Series championship at home.

All the Dodgers have to do is win the next three games. That's it.

Game 3 gets underway at 8 p.m. Eastern and can be seen on Fox. Also, SiriusXM will have the Dodgers and Blue Jays announcers' calls on different stations there. ESPN Radio will have World Series Game 3 on its network.

Here at Dodgers Roundtable, we're going to have coverage throughout Game 3 in this thread.

We'll be back just before first pitch is thrown on Monday night.
