The Yankees were able to stave off elimination with an 11-4 victory, keeping them alive for a World Series that has one final game in New York on Wednesday.

In what has been the most exciting game of the series so far, a hobbled Freeman had his Kirk Gibson moment when he hit the first walk off grand slam in World Series history in the bottom of the 10th inning. It will likely be known as the signature moment should the Dodgers hold on and win the championship, but the 35\u2013year-old was just getting started.<\/p>\n<p>Freeman has been Los Angeles\u2019 most productive player, mostly by way of the home run. His four dingers are tied for the 2nd most in a single World Series, on par with a group of guys that includes Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Barry Bonds.<\/p>\n<h2>Freeman Extends Personal Record In Game 4 Loss<\/h2>\n<p>Should he hit another home run at some point in this World Series, Freddie Freeman would move into a tie for first place for the most homers in a single championship series. The only player to have hit five are George Springer (2017), Chaste Utley (2009), and Reggie Jackson (1977).<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Freddie Freeman has done it.<\/p>\n<p>He is the first player in MLB history to hit a home run in six consecutive World Series games.<\/p>\n<p>If the Dodgers win it all, he will win the World Series MVP.<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GnE2iJ0IRc\">pic.twitter.com\/GnE2iJ0IRc<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Noah Camras (@noahcamras) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/noahcamras\/status\/1851417593615437892?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 30, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>While he will join others with his single-series performance, Freeman extended his own personal record in Game 4. He set a record in Game 3 by hitting a home run in his 5th-straight World Series game, dating back to his appearance with the Atlanta Braves in 2021. His long ball on Tuesday extended his record to 6.<\/p>\n<p>Game 5 will be played on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium, with the pitching matchup figured to be Garrit Cole vs. Jack Flaherty.
