Big news—the Dodgers have done it! The Los Angeles Dodgers have just won the World Series, and I can’t contain my excitement. Now, I know this is technically a Lakers channel, and I’ve mostly covered Lakers content here. But today, I had to make an exception because this win is a major moment for Los Angeles and for Dodger fans like myself who were born and raised here. The whole city is buzzing, and this game was truly one for the history books!
I won’t lie; early in the game, things weren’t looking great. The Dodgers seemed dead in the water at first, and it looked like we were in for a tough night. But then, that unforgettable fifth inning happened. The Yankees practically handed us the game with error after error—and then boom! The Dodgers seized every opportunity. It was incredible to see them come back from five runs down, setting a World Series record for the biggest comeback.
What’s crazy is that the Dodgers might be even better next year. We’ll likely see Shohei Ohtani pitching again, and if we can keep Tyler Glasnow, who was a key player for us this season, we’ll have an even stronger lineup. And while many doubted the Dodgers’ pitching strength going into the postseason, they showed everyone what they’re made of, especially in that Padres game onward. It’s this team’s resilience and determination that brought home the championship.
On a personal note, I’ve been critical of Dave Roberts’ managing style in the past, but I have to admit he was on point this season, especially with key substitutions and game strategy. Sure, I wish he’d taken out Hudson a bit sooner, but I’ll give credit where it’s due. Roberts helped lead this team to victory, and I respect that.
It’s also interesting to note the connection with the Lakers. Last time the Dodgers won the World Series, the Lakers were NBA champions. Can we get a repeat this year? The Lakers winning would make for an epic back-to-back parade. LA deserves it!
