"More travel challenges for #Dodgers after Game 5 in LA, players' plane this time. Delayed 2+ hours before takeoff due to mechanical issues. Meant they arrived in time for morning traffic, long ride from airport- Bill Plunkett (@billplunkettocr) October 31, 2025 Dodgers ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto will be on the mound on Friday coming off consecutive complete game outings for the defending champions. In those two outings, he has gone 18 innings, allowed just two earned runs and one walk, and struck out 15 batters."
"The Los Angeles Dodgers got off to a rough start ahead of Game 6 of the World Series as their plane was reportedly delayed for over two hours due to mechanical issues, according to the Orange County Register's Bill Plunkett. LA needs to win two games in a row on the road, and the logistical delay certainly doesn't help make the tall task any easier."
Players' plane suffered a mechanical delay of more than two hours, forcing a late arrival that resulted in morning traffic and a long ride from the airport. The delay intensified logistical challenges as Los Angeles must win two consecutive road games to force or secure the series. Dodgers ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto will start Game 6, entering on the strength of consecutive complete games, 18 innings pitched, two earned runs allowed, one walk and 15 strikeouts. The offense has struggled, producing three runs in the last two contests, creating urgency for improved run production.
