Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow made MLB history in his relief appearance in Game 6 of the World Series on Friday, taking advantage of the unique circumstances he came in with.

Roki Sasaki started the ninth inning for the Dodgers, however found himself with runners on second and third without recording an out. Glasnow came into the game for the next batter, and forced a popout on the first pitch to record the inning's first out.

Two pitches later, a soft lineout from Andres Giminez ended up in a double play when left fielder Kike Hernandez threw out Addison Barger as he attempted to return to second following the catch, ending the game and securing a Dodgers win.

Glasnow entered the game with runners on second and third, nobody out, with the tying run on base and no force play in effect and still recorded the save in just two batters, becoming the first player in MLB history to do so under those specific circumstances.

Since saves became official in 1969, Tyler Glasnow is the only MLB pitcher to enter any game (reg or post) with:

runners on 2nd & 3rd
nobody out
tying run on base
no force play in effect (i.e., nobody on 1st)

...and yet complete the save by facing just 2 batters. pic.twitter.com/svBjlKLyS4

He has recorded 23 strikeouts during that time, and has an opposing batting average of .182.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts revealed Glasnow will also be available for Game 7 of the World Series, so his work for LA may not be over.

The Dodgers head straight back into Game 7 on Saturday, which will also take place on the road in Toronto. The Dodgers have a solid record on the road this postseason, having lost just one game away from home during their run. They have won both of their last two Game 7 matchups on the road, and will look to continue the trend on the biggest stage.
