K. Jansen - RP

LA

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters before Game 5 of the World Series on Sunday that he was unsure on Kenley Jansen's role.

"We'll play it by ear. See how the game plays out," Roberts told the media. Jansen was not good on Saturday while blowing a save against the Rays in Game 4; allowing two runs -- one earned -- on two hits with a walk. The right-hander dealt with velocity issues earlier in the postseason, as well, and wasn't used in some save chances earlier in the playoffs. The question now is who Roberts turns to if the Dodgers have a lead late on Sunday.

S. Wilkerson - CF

BAL

Roch Kubatko of MASN reports that the Orioles have re-signed Stevie Wilkerson to a minor league contract.

The contract includes an invitation to spring training. Wilkerson was released in September not long after it was revealed that the infielder/outfielder was going to miss the rest of the season with a fractured left ring finger. The switch-hitter has a career OPS of .714 with 22 homers and 42 steals in 424 games. He'll battle for a backup job with Baltimore in the Grapefruit League this spring.

C. Bellinger - CF

LA

Cody Bellinger (back) is starting in center field and batting sixth for the Dodgers in Sunday's World Series Game 5 versus the Rays.

Bellinger was moved from center field to the designated hitter spot shortly before Game 4 due to some back tightness, but he's feeling well enough to play the field in Game 5. The Dodgers will throw out this lineup against Tyler Glasnow: Mookie Betts RF, Corey Seager SS, Justin Turner 3B, Max Muncy 1B, Will Smith DH, Bellinger CF, Chris Taylor 2B, Joc Pederson LF, Austin Barnes C.

M. Margot - RF

TB

Manuel Margot is starting in left field and batting cleanup for the Rays in Sunday's World Series Game 5.

The Rays are using the same group of position players that they used against Clayton Kershaw in Game 1. The order is slightly different, with one change being Margot moving up one spot to cleanup after going 4-for-12 at the plate in the first four contests. Tampa Bay's full lineup looks like this: Yandy Diaz 1B, Randy Arozarena DH, Brandon Lowe 2B, Margot LF, Hunter Renfroe RF, Joey Wendle 3B, Willy Adames SS, Kevin Kiermaier, Mike Zunino, C.

K. Kiermaier - CF

TB

Kevin Kiermaier went 2-for-4 with a homer and a pair of runs scored on Saturday as the Rays rallied to beat the Dodgers in Game 4 of the World Series.

Kiermaier blasted a game-tying solo shot off of Pedro Baez in the seventh inning to make it 6-6. He then singled off of Kenley Jansen to with one out in the ninth inning to begin the game-winning rally and scored on Brett Phillips' wild walk-off RBI single. With the two hit night, Kiermaier is now hitting .224 (11-for-49) with three homers and seven RBI through 16 games this postseason.

B. Phillips - CF

TB

Brett Phillips played the role of unlikely hero in Game 4 of the World Series on Saturday, delivering a walk-off RBI single off of Kenley Jansen as the Rays rallied to beat the Dodgers 8-7.

The Rays entered the ninth inning trailing 7-6. Kevin Kiermaier got things started with a one-out bloop single, then Randy Arozarena worked Jansen for a seven-pitch walk, setting the stage for the 26-year-old outfielder who had entered the game as a pinch-runner for Ji-Man Choi in the eighth inning. After falling behind in the count 1-2, Phillips lined an RBI single into right field that scored Kiermaier from second. It also wound up scoring Arozarena -- who had been hustling the whole way -- after Chris Taylor bobbled the ball in center field, then Will Smith was unable to corral the relay throw, even after Arozarena had stumbled and fell halfway between third base and home plate. Now, rather than facing a daunting 3-1 deficit in the series, things are squared away at 2-2 heading to Game 5 on Sunday.

C. Seager - SS

LA

Corey Seager went 4-for-5 with a homer, two RBI and three runs scored on Saturday, but it wasn't enough to lead the Dodgers past the Rays in Game 4 of the World Series.

Seager clobbered a solo shot off of Rays starter Ryan Yarbrough in the third inning, increasing the Dodgers early lead to 2-0. It was his eighth home run of the postseason -- matching the MLB record for most home runs in a single postseason, that is until Randy Arozarena belted his ninth the following inning. Seager also delivered a clutch two-out bloop RBI single in the eighth inning to give the Dodgers a 7-6 lead at the time. He’s hitting a ridiculous .344 (21-for-61) with the aforementioned eight long balls and 18 RBI through 16 games this postseason.

J. Turner - 3B

LA

Justin Turner went 4-for-5 with a homer, double and two runs scored as the Dodgers fell to the Rays in Game 4 of the World Series on Saturday evening in Arlington.

For the second consecutive game, Turner opened the scoring with a two-out solo blast in the first inning -- this time off of Rays’ left-hander Ryan Yarbrough. Turner then doubled and came around to score on Joc Pederson’s two-out, two-run single in the seventh. Turner and teammate Corey Seager became the first pair of teammates since Paul Molitor and Robin Yount of the 1982 Brewers to each have four or more hits in the same World Series game. He’s now hitting .279 (17-for-61) with three homers and six RBI this postseason.
