The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees 7-6 on Wednesday, winning the eighth World Series in franchise history.
Down five runs through four innings, the Dodgers comeback victory is the largest in a clinching game in World Series history.
It is the Dodgers’ first World Series title since 2020.
It is a win few observers saw coming when the postseason began, even for one of the most talented lineups in baseball. With a rotation ravaged by injuries, the Dodgers overwhelmed opponents on offense and got just enough quality pitching to make it work.
Freddie Freeman, who homered in a record four straight games to open the Fall Classic, was named a deserving World Series MVP after the game.
