ARLINGTON, Texas -- One glaring positive emerged from the Los Angeles Dodgers' 6-4 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday: They didn't use Julio Urias out of the bullpen, instead lining him up to start Game 4 on Saturday.
With Walker Buehler leading the Dodgers over Tampa Bay 6-2 for a 2-1 Series lead Friday night, the Dodgers will now go with Urias and Clayton Kershaw in Games 4 and 5, respectively.
The Rays started Charlie Morton in Game 3 and can bring Tyler Glasnow back to oppose Kershaw in Game 5. Their Game 4 starter has yet to be announced, but Ryan Yarbrough might be able to provide the bulk of the innings, despite throwing 19 pitches out of the bullpen in Game 1.
