The Bronx Bombers are determined to make a comeback as they have yet to win a game in the Fall Classic and are on the brink of being swept. In 2004, the Red Sox became the only team to come back and win a playoff series after being down 3-0 in the American League Championship Series. Coincidentally, this happened against the Yankees and now, they hope to be on the other side.
"Just takes one," said Aaron Judge, who has failed to meet expectations, after Game 3’s loss. So far, Judge has gone 1-for-12 with seven strikeouts this World Series. Judge hasn’t been the only one struggling, as the Yankees bats have seemingly gone cold.

"All it takes is just one swing, one at-bat, one play. Everything changes for us. That’s just the mindset you’ve got to have going into this," Judge said.
Luis Gil will take the mound for the Yankees Tuesday night, while the Dodgers turn to the bullpen and have named Ben Casparius as Tuesday night’s starter.
