He's only been in the majors for a little over a month but rookie starting pitcher Trey Yesavage has made quite a name for himself after a historic Game 5 performance to lead the Toronto Blue Jays to a 6-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers to take a commanding 3-2 series lead in the World Series .
The former first-round pick in the 2024 MLB draft had a masterful outing, finishing with 12 strikeouts, which broke Don Newcombe's rookie record for the most in a World Series start, set in 1949.
Yesavage's dominance didn't stop there as he struck out five straight Dodgers batters at one point, which was the most consecutive by a rookie in World Series history.
The 22-year-old, from Montgomery County, Pennsylvania , was born in Pottstown and graduated from Boyertown High School.
