Now, here are the top moments from the World Series Game 5 Watch Party.
Who's got the mo'?
The Tampa Bay Rays seemingly had everything pointing in their direction after their epic Game 4 win. Yet the Dodgers came out swinging and established an early lead on Sunday, reclaiming the momentum in the series.
On that note, Tino explained why he believes in momentum, citing his own experience with the Yankees as a particularly poignant example of seizing the advantage.
Strong thoughts on Kershaw
The Dodgers starting pitcher left Game 5 with two outs in the bottom of the 6th and L.A. holding a two-run lead, after tossing 81 total pitches to 21 batters.
It was a sharp performance for Kershaw, but Reggie Jackson isn't convinced that he has what it takes to consistently get his team over the top in October.
Never question Mr. October
Before his special guest appearance was over, Jackson regaled the crew and the audience with a story about how he – and his teammates – convinced manager Billy Martin to move the slugger from the 5 spot to the 4. And you can probably guess what happened next.
