Aaron Judge's error sparks the Yankees' disastrous fifth inning

And the always-dangerous Dodgers struck out for five runs, tying the game 5-5 in the fifth inning of Game 5 at Yankee Stadium.

In one of the most disastrous innings in recent postseason history, the big hits reportedly came from Freddie Freeman, who hit a two-run single, and Teoscar Hernandez, who tied the game with a two-run double. But these came with an air of inevitability after the Yankees threw the door wide open.

First, Judge, who botched a routine fly by Max Muncy on an error after Kiké Hernandez's leadoff single. Then a fumbled grounder off Will Smith's bat into the hole, where Anthony Volpe felt like his only play was to reach third. He let the throw bounce due to an error.
