After an apathetic performance in the first three games, the New York Yankees managed to wake up in Game 4, defeating the Los Angeles Dodgers 11–4. This win has injected new life into the team and sparked hope for an epic comeback, and Jazz Chisholm Jr. has been clear on this issue following Game 4 of the MLB World Series.
Despite trailing 3-1 in the series, young player Chisholm Jr. believes the Yankees can become the first team in MLB history to come back from a three-game deficit and accomplish the impossible.
“We got barrel on the ball. We went out and attacked early. We know they had a bullpen game today and we had a plan to go out there and attack them and we did,” Chisholm Jr. said, describing Game 4’s 11-run eruption.
“I still think we can shock the world. The one thing about us is, we love history. And we love to make history. So, for us, we’re out here trying to make history right now. And we know it’s never been done, a 3-0 comeback, but we feel like we’re the team that can do it,” Chisholm Jr. told reporters.
