The defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers entered Friday night just one loss away from elimination.

But a bold move to bring in Sunday's projected starter, Tyler Glasnow, in the final frame of the ninth inning helped the Dodgers survive.

Glasnow entered Friday’s win-or-go home game with a Toronto Blue Jays runner on second and another on third base. It took Glasnow just three pitches to get three outs to close the game and force a Game 7.

Two of those outs came after the Dodgers turned what appeared to be a potential game-tying hit into a dramatic, game-ending double play.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts decided to shake up the lineup again for Game 6.

After moving from second to third in the order in Wednesday’s Game 5 loss, shortstop Mookie Betts dropped into the cleanup spot Friday against Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman.

OUTFIELDER? OPENER? SHOHEI OHTANI'S GAME 7 ROLE IS WIDE OPEN

Betts had not hit as low as fourth since the final game of the 2017 American League Division Series against Houston. Game 5 was the first time since 2021 that Betts started but wasn't in one of the top two spots in Los Angeles' lineup.

Betts entered Game 6 hitting just 3-for-23 with no RBIs or extra-base hits in the World Series, but he made the most of his new spot in the batting order, delivering a two-run single in the third inning.

Dodgers starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto was not quite as sharp as in his Game 2 four-hitter, the first World Series complete game in a decade. He lasted six innings and allowed only a third-inning RBI single by George Springer, who returned after missing two games with an injury to his right side.

After the game, Roberts explained his decision to use Glasnow in relief.  

"This is do or die. You've got to leave it all out there and pick up all the pieces," Roberts told FOX Sports. " Roki (Sasaki) wasn't as sharp. I felt right there Glasnow had swing and miss stuff and I just wanted to bet on him."

Max Scherzer will start Game 7 on Saturday night for the Blue Jays. He also started the last World Series Game 7, getting a no-decision when Washington won the 2019 title over Houston.

The Dodgers are seeking to become the first team to win consecutive titles since the New York Yankees won three straight from 1998 to 2000. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays hope to end their championship drought by securing their first World Series title since 1993.

Game 7 is scheduled for Saturday at 8 p.m. ET on FOX.

Illinois lawmakers passed a bill on Friday prohibiting federal agents from making immigration arrests near courthouses.

The measure also allows lawsuits when people believe their constitutional rights were violated during civil immigration arrests.

The legislation, approved largely along party lines, was sent to Democrat Gov. JB Pritzker's desk. His office said he supports the idea and will review the proposal when it reaches his desk.

According to the bill, civil damages for false imprisonment could be imposed when a migrant attending a court hearing or appearing as a party or witness to a legal proceeding is arrested.

BLUE CITY JUDGE CITES 'FEAR OR OBSTRUCTION' IN BLOCKING ICE COURTHOUSE ARRESTS DURING COURT PROCEEDINGS

Supporters of the bill say courts must be accessible to everyone to seek resolutions to violations of their rights, but even one of the measure's top sponsors acknowledges it will face an uphill battle in court.

"It’s not just about the constitutionality of the law, which I think is sound, but it’s the reality that the courts are stacked against us," Democrat Senate President Don Harmon said. "The federal government can try to remove it from state courts to federal courts. They can try to substitute the government itself for the individual defendants, but that’s not a reason not to try."

Earlier this month, a judge in Cook County, which includes Chicago, issued an order blocking immigration arrests at county courthouses, citing concerns about "fear or obstruction" while migrants attend court proceedings. The order prohibits immigration authorities from making civil arrests of any "party, witness, or potential witness" during court appearances.

The federal government, however, contended that "there are no legal sanctuaries where you can hide and avoid the consequences for breaking the law."

The Trump administration's immigration agenda aims to detain suspected illegal migrants as part of the president's mass deportation policies. But witnesses have reported numerous incidents of Immigration and Customs Enforcement detaining people regardless of citizenship or legal status.

"No one should have to choose between seeking justice and risking their freedom," said Democrat state Sen. Celina Villanueva, who is co-sponsoring the bill. "Courthouses must be places where people can resolve disputes, testify and support loved ones, not sites of fear or intimidation."

The measure also requires hospitals, day care centers and higher education institutions to create policies detailing how they would handle immigration agents inside their facilities.

Earlier this year, the federal government reversed a Biden administration policy prohibiting immigration arrests in sensitive locations such as hospitals, schools and churches.

Other states have made similar efforts to protect migrants against federal raids.

FEDERAL JUDGE LIMITS ICE ARRESTS WITHOUT WARRANT, PROBABLE CAUSE

California has restricted immigration enforcement action in courthouses since 2017. California Attorney General Rob Bonta said the state cannot control federal immigration action, but "the state has a responsibility to provide safe and secure access to court facilities to all residents regardless of immigration status."

In Connecticut, state Supreme Court Chief Justice Raheem Mullins issued a policy in September banning warrantless arrests inside state courts, and prohibited the use of face coverings, often worn by ICE officers to shield their identities, in judicial buildings.

"Judges, staff, litigants, members of the public, they all must be able to conduct their business in our courthouses without fear of disruption," Mullins said.

Other bills introduced by various local governments and Congress also seek to ban face coverings for immigration agents.
