The Los Angeles team gained access to the World Series for the fourth time in eight years by beating their New York rivals 10-5.
The Dodgers decided the game in the eighth inning. The lead went from 7-4 to 10-4 thanks to a nice serve from Chris Taylor. The last time the Los Angeles team won the title was in 2020.”I love these guys“, ha detto l’outfielder dei Dodgers Mookie Betts. “It’s fun to come to work every day. It’s fun to compete with them“.
Edman, who was injured until mid-August, was named the series’ Most Valuable Player. “The way the season started, finding yourself in this situation is crazy“, he said. “We are a fantastic team. They welcomed me with open arms. I can’t wait to move forward“.
The Dodgers won the best-of-seven National League Championship Series 4-2 over the Mets and will open the World Series at home on Friday against the New York Yankees, who own a record 27 titles. “I can’t wait,” Edman said. “It’s what we’ve always dreamed of.”
It will be the twelfth time the Dodgers and Yankees meet in the World Series. The last meeting was in 1981, when the Dodgers won. The Dodgers reached the World Series for the 22nd time, while the Yankees, who have not participated in the World Series since winning the crown in 2009, are participating for the 41st time.
