The greater Los Angeles area loves winners, and right now, it is celebrating the Los Angeles Dodgers’ thrilling World Series championship victory over the Toronto Blue Jays.
The Dodgers took a 2-1 series lead thanks to Freddie Freeman’s walk-off home run in the 18th inning of Game 3. After falling behind three games to two, they won the final two games in Canada with a series of clutch plays, especially on defense.
On Monday, the Dodgers were honored with a parade. Then, when the Los Angeles Lakers hosted the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday, several members of the Dodgers team were on hand, including Mookie Betts and Will Smith. During the break between the first and second quarters, the Dodgers players in attendance were honored at center court as they displayed the Commissioner’s Trophy.
This was the Dodgers’ second consecutive World Series title and their third in the last six seasons. Once they report to spring training in a few months, they will be aiming for a third consecutive championship—something no team in Major League Baseball has accomplished since the New York Yankees did so in 2000.
