Game 5 Probable Starters: Yesavage vs Snell
All stats from 2025 regular season unless otherwise indicated.
Snell had been nearly untouchable in his first three postseason starts, going 21.0 innings while allowing just two runs on six hits and five walks with 27 strikeouts. That wasn’t the case in Game 1, though, when the Jays tagged him for five runs on eight hits and three walks in an 11-4 rout.
Daulton Varsho took Snell yard with two-run shot in the fourth inning. That implosion from Snell ran counter, not just to his postseason performance to date, but also his track record against the Toronto hitters. Prior to Game 1, they had just a ..227 average and .623 OPS against Snell in 66 ABs.
Toronto rookie Yesavage was better, but not great. He allowed two runs on four hits and three walks over just 4.0 innings (1.75 WHIP).
