The Los Angeles Dodgers are back-to-back champions of the baseball world.
Los Angeles took down the Toronto Blue Jays, 5-4, in an 11-inning Game 7 thriller on Saturday night.
The Dodgers hadn’t held a lead in the finale of the Fall Classic until the 11th inning (via a clutch Will Smith solo home run), and were trailing going into the ninth inning (until Miguel Rojas belted a home run that was just as clutch).
With two outs to go in the ninth inning, it was non other than the ace, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who entered the contest on zero days’ rest. Not only did he pitch his second consecutive complete game in the postseason in Game 2, not only did he toss six innings and 96 pitches the night prior to extend the series, but he got the last eight outs of Game 7 to help his team hoist the Commissioner’s Trophy once more, rightfully earning World Series MVP honors.
In other news, the close of the 2025 MLB season also means that it is the end of future Hall of Famer Clayton Kershaw’s career. He sent an emotional message to his team after Game 7, as his team that ensured his career ended with a third World Series to add to his collection before it ends in Cooperstown.
