Andy Pages Benched in Game 5, Alex Call Staring in Left Field
Los Angeles Dodgers struggling outfielder Andy Pages will retreat to the bench in Game 5 of the World Series on Wednesday night against the visiting Toronto Blue Jays and rookie right-hander Trey Yesavage. Enrique Hernandez will make the start in center field and will hit eighth, with Alex Call starting in left field and batting in the nine-hole. Catcher Will Smith will move up to No. 2 in the batting order. Pages may not start another game in the Fall Classic after going just 4-for-50 with 11 strikeouts and no walks in 14 games during this year's playoffs. Call has appeared in six games this October with L.A. and has gone 4-for-9 with two walks and a strikeout in his first 12 playoff plate appearances. Call will have very little DFS appeal at the bottom of the batting order against an up-and-coming young pitcher whom he has never faced.
