Dodgers Dominate A’s As Hershiser Shines In Series Lead
Dodgers take a 2-0 World Series lead behind Orel Hershiser who struck out eight over 104 pitches. Gibson did not play, but the Dodgers benefited from a first-inning run and a five-run burst including Marshall’s homer. Parker and McGwire managed hits for Oakland but the A’s could not solve Hershiser who held them to six balls out of the infield and extended the home-team winning streak to 12 in the Series season.
