Takes second World Series loss
Snell took the loss in Game 5 of the World Series against the Blue Jays on Wednesday, giving up five earned runs on six hits and four walks while striking out seven batters across 6.2 innings.
Analyse
It seemed like the 32-year-old lefty was going to be in for a rough start early after two of his first three pitches were hit over the left field wall by Davis Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero. Snell managed to settle in afterward and kept Toronto's offense at bay for the next several innings, but the Dodgers' bats also failed to come alive against Toronto starter Trey Yesavage. After allowing two men to reach base and throwing a pair of wild pitches in the seventh, Snell was pulled for Edgardo Henriquez, who allowed both inherited runners to score and didn't record an out. After cruising through his first three postseason outings, Snell has now given up 10 earned runs in 11.2 innings during the World Series. He's expected to be available out of the bullpen if the Dodgers force a Game 7.

Struggles in Game 1 loss
Snell took the loss in Game 1 of the World Series against Toronto on Friday after giving up five earned runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out four batters over five-plus innings.
Analyse
Snell had been dominant during Los Angeles' postseason run, but the left-hander struggled with his command Friday. He allowed six men to reach base over the first three innings before giving up a game-tying two-run homer to Daulton Varsho in the fourth. The score remained even until the bottom of the sixth, at which point Snell walked Bo Bichette, gave up a single to Alejandro Kirk and hit Varsho with a pitch before coming out of the game without recording an out. The Dodgers' bullpen allowed all three inherited runners to score, kicking off what would be a nine-run outburst from the Jays in an eventual 11-4 victory. Assuming Toronto doesn't pull off the sweep, Snell is expected to take the mound again in Game 5.
