LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers try to extend their World Series lead over the Astros on Wednesday night at Dodger Stadium, and they send Rich Hill to the mound facing one of the teams who courted him as a free agent last winter.
Hill mentioned the Yankees and Astros as teams that showed interest in his services, though he ultimately decided to return to the Dodgers at the winter meetings in December on a three-year, $48 million deal.
“It went pretty far. The contractual talks got pretty deep,” Hill said of his dalliance with the Astros.
