"The Toronto Blue Jays fell just short on Monday night, losing 6-5 in 18 innings to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 3 of the World Series. The Dodgers took a 2-1 series lead in a game that saw several eye-popping numbers produced. Here are some numbers to know from a showdown to remember: 18: The number of innings the game lasted before Freddie Freeman hit a walk-off home run to end it is tied for the most in World Series history."
"6 hours 39 minutes: Monday's game was the second longest in World Series history, behind that Dodgers win over Boston seven years ago when Max Muncy hit the walk-off home run to end the game after seven hours 20 minutes. Game 3 of the Jays world series against the Dodgers ran so long some fans took to sleeping in the stands at the Rogers Centre watch party. (Jes Mason/CBC)"
"3: Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani became the first player ever to have three multi-home run games in a single post-season with his two in the victory. He also had a two-homer showing against Cincinnati in the wild-card round and a three-homer game to help L.A. sweep Milwaukee in the National League Championship Series. Ohtani, who has eight home runs, is closing in on Randy Arozarena's MLB record of 10 homers in one post-season set in 2020."
The Dodgers beat the Blue Jays 6-5 in an 18-inning Game 3 of the World Series, taking a 2-1 series lead. The game lasted 6 hours 39 minutes, making it the second-longest World Series game ever.

Freddie Freeman hit a walk-off home run to end the marathon, marking his second World Series walk-off. Shohei Ohtani recorded his third multi-homer postseason game and has eight postseason home runs to date.
