Yanks suffered 12 K's as they were overswinging. They kept trying to pull the ball especially when facing hooks & sliders. They should have tried some small ball with opposite field hitting to gradually accumulate runs. Instead they were trying to kill the ball, trying to score runs all at once. Not a smart thing to do when the Dodgers pitching is so good at off speeds, breaking balls, and ball control rather. Will be interesting to see if Yanks make any adjustment in their offensive strategy.
If they don't change a change, look for a Dodgers sweep of this Series.

Freddie used to kill the Phillies when he was with the Braves. Never wanted to see him come up in a critical situation.
