Yankees' rookie Will Warren gets a harsh lesson vs. the world champion Dodgers' lineup
LOS ANGELES – Win, lose or no-decision, Will Warren would gain something by facing the defending world champs. 'Whatever happens, I feel like we're continuing to see the emergence of a really good pitcher,'' Yankees manager Aaron Boone said of his rookie pitcher, prior to Saturday's start. Advertisement About two hours later at a packed Dodger Stadium, Warren received perhaps the harshest lesson of his young, big-league career. Warren retired just four batters, and the Dodgers scored seven runs against him, on the way to a stunning 18-2 late afternoon victory. Entering with a 4.09 ERA and exiting with a 5.19 ERA, Warren's six-hit, four-walk outing put the Yanks on the express toward a series loss in this anticipated World Series rematch. It'll be lefty Ryan Yarbrough on Sunday for the Yanks (35-22) against Yoshinobu Yamamoto as the Dodgers (36-22) try for a three-game sweep, which could echo into October. Shohei Ohtani on the pitching comeback trail And if there's to be a true World Series rematch this fall, Shohei Ohtani could be a full-fledged weapon on the Dodger pitching staff. Advertisement Continuing his gradual buildup from Tommy John surgery rehab, Ohtani tossed two simulated innings against live batters earlier Saturday, drawing plenty of media attention. At the plate Saturday, Ohtani went 2-for-4 with two singles and was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the sixth inning of this lopsided affair. That helped Aaron Judge to win their personal in-game Home Run Derby, as Judge launched Nos. 20 and 21 of the year, accounting for all of the Yankees' Saturday scoring. Entering Sunday's series finale, Judge has three homers this weekend to Ohtani's two.

Mandatory Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images Over his first six starts this season, Warren's 5.65 ERA in 24 innings, with 26 strikeouts and 12 walks, was a window into the Yanks' pitching reality. Advertisement Ace Gerrit Cole (elbow surgery), Luis Gil (lat strain) and eventually Marcus Stroman (knee inflammation) were missing from the rotation, necessitating Warren's presence. But Warren had a solid spring training performance, and his five starts prior to Saturday – 2.70 ERA, 41 strikeouts, 8 walks in 26.2 innings – reflected more than just promise. Finding 'ways to contribute any way I can,'' Cole had some lengthy chats with Warren, beginning a few weeks ago, about 'executing pitches at a high level. Warren's recent success was 'partially him becoming more comfortable with the weapons that he has,'' said Cole, and Boone saw a pitcher with "more answers for lefty hitters'' with a good mix of fastballs, sinkers, curves and changeups. Advertisement And then the roof caved in Saturday afternoon, capped by Max Muncy's three-run homer - giving the Dodgers a 7-0 lead and starting a carousel of Yankees pitchers that ended with middle infielder Pablo Reyes.

Yankees' World Series rematch turning into nightmare
Things are not going well for the Yankees in their World Series rematch against the Dodgers. Access the Yankees beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees. Try it free During Saturday's game, the Yankees got down big quickly, with the Dodgers scoring 10 runs in the first two innings. Will Warren, who started on the mound for New York, went just 1 1/3 innings and gave up seven earned runs, including a three-run homer to Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy in the second inning. Yankees reliever Brent Headrick relieved him and gave up three earned runs in just 2/3 of an inning, with the Dodgers expanding their lead to 10-0 after the first two frames. 3 New York Yankees pitcher Will Warren reacts in the second inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium.

AP Outside of an Aaron Judge solo home run in the fourth inning, the Yankees' offense has thus far remained quiet. Los Angeles added four more in the fifth — three on another Muncy homer — to take a 14-1 lead. CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND YANKEES STATS The Post's Greg Joyce noted the Dodger Stadium organist began to play the 'Monday Night Football' theme at that point. Of the first four pitchers of the game, Ian Hamilton was the only Yankee to not yield a run over two scoreless frames. This large deficit for the Yankees comes after an 8-5 loss to the Dodgers on Friday, when Max Fried had his worst start of the season, giving up six earned runs in five innings, including two home runs to Shohei Ohtani. 3 Aaron Judge reacts from the dugout in the third inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium on May 31, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. Getty Images 'I felt like the guys did a great job tonight, putting up early runs, and for the most part I just didn't do my job,' Fried said after the start. 'I'm a competitor, I want to go out there and win. So the fact that we had a lead and I gave it up a couple [of] times, it's not going to sit well with me. But just got to be able to use it as motivation to go out next time and make sure it doesn't happen again.'

Yankees vs. Dodgers prediction: MLB Saturday player props, picks, odds
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Will Warren has taken his game to the next level in May. The 25-year-old Yankees right-hander has dominated since the beginning of the month, and he'll get a major test against the reigning World Series champion Dodgers on Saturday in Los Angeles. After earning a rotation spot thanks to a rash of Yankee pitcher injuries, Warren didn't exactly look like a mainstay through April, posting a 5.63 ERA in his first six starts in 2025. Something clicked when the calendar turned. In five starts and 26 2/3 innings since, Warren has a 2.70 ERA with a whopping 41 strikeouts while allowing just one home run. He's had at least seven strikeouts in all five outings, including 10 against the Rangers and nine against the Mariners. That ERA lowers to 2.05 when factoring in just his last four outings, in which he's averaging 1.5 strikeouts per inning and has yielded no more than two runs in each start. New York Yankees pitcher Will Warren (98) prepares to throw in the third inning against the Texas Rangers at Yankee Stadium, Tuesday, May 20, 2025, in Bronx, NY. Corey Sipkin for the NY POST Warren gets a tough Dodgers lineup Saturday, but they may be without one of the best hitters in baseball. Mookie Betts missed Friday night's game with a stubbed toe, and his status for Saturday is up in the air. Warren's strikeout prop (5.5) is a little on the low side, given his opponent. Learn all you need to know about MLB Betting But he's proven he can rack up the punch-outs quickly, even against a tough lineup. The Dodgers showed their resiliency without Betts on Friday by rallying from a three-run deficit in the sixth inning to hand Max Fried his first loss with the Yankees. Bet on Warren to hit the Over, even if he doesn't completely shut down the Dodgers.
