But in reality, the Yankees’ embarrassing performance in the World Series is a systemwide breakdown. They’re not getting away with it against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series. It’s been a rough World Series for the Yankees’ Jazz Chisholm and Aaron Judge. And the Yankees actually should be capable of winning one with the Dodgers planning a bullpen game Tuesday night. Defensive miscues by right fielder Juan Soto and second baseman Gleyber Torres haunted the Yankees in Game 1.

Let’s do that now, because here’s what I think we’ve been watching:A World Series with possibly eight future Hall of Famers. So no World Series is ever catching the 1932 Series, when an incredible 13 eventual Hall of Famers took the field. How about saying you were there when Freddie Freeman took over a World Series in his own Freddie-esque way? And it looks exactly like that dude who trots — or sometimes limps — out to first base every night in this World Series. • Easy as 1-2-3 — We’re three games into this World Series, and Freeman has homered in all three of those games.
