The older Dodger bats might be fatigued -- Freeman, Betts and Ohtani played the entire 18-inning game and followed it up with 2 more games without a day off.
A day off before game 6 could help -- give the bats some time to reset, at least. Yamamoto should keep the game close enough to win if the lineup scores some runs.
Ohtani has been feast-or-famine this postseason, so it's probably time to feast again.
