The Los Angeles Dodgers won the 2024 World Series last night, beating the New York Yankees 7-6 in Game 5. The victory marks the Dodgers' eighth championship title and the team's first full season championship win since 1988; the Dodgers secured the title during a shortened season in 2020.
The team's win came after a turnaround fifth inning, in which the Dodgers ended the Yankees' 5-0 lead following three defensive miscues, tying up the game 5-5 (rewatch the inning here). Despite the Yankees regaining the lead in the sixth inning, the Dodgers pulled ahead in the eighth. Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman was named the 2024 World Series MVP after becoming the first player to hit homers in the first four games of a World Series.
The Dodgers parade will take place tomorrow morning in downtown Los Angeles.
