Dodgers Clip Astros 4-3 in WS Contest
The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Houston Astros will take the World Series to a decisive 7th game. In a must-win situation today, the Dodgers beat the Astros 4-3 at Dodger Stadium to force the series into what will essentially be a one-game playoff. Los Angeles catcher Will Smith went 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles.

Smith had a critical at-bat in the bottom of the seventh for Los Angeles, coming through with a run-scoring double to put Los Angeles in front, 3-2.

"We'll savor this win," Smith told the Los Angeles Chronicle, "then get ready for the next game."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.
