Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the New York Mets 10-5 in the sixth game of the Championship Series to win the National League, so they will now face the Yankees in the Major League Baseball World Series ( MLB).
Thus, the Dodgers secured their 25th National League pennant and their first at home since 1988, when they beat the Mets in seven games. Additionally, they advanced to their 22nd World Series and first since 2020, when they beat Tampa Bay during the pandemic-delayed season.
The Dodgers and Yankees have met 11 times in the World Series, more than any other rivalry, with the Los Angeles franchise’s last victory coming in 1981.
Now, facing the Mets, Tommy Edman and Will Smith hit home runs to send baseball star Shohei Ohtani to the World Series for the first time.
The New Yorkers got ahead on the scoreboard on Sunday amid the spectacular atmosphere created by the 52,000 fans at Dodger Stadium.
Puerto Rican Francisco Lindor scored in the first inning after a single by Mets star Pete Alonso.
The Dodgers turned it around in the same inning thanks to a double by Edman that drove in scores by Ohtani and the Dominican Teoscar Hernández. The locals escaped in the third inning with two-run home runs from Edman himself and Will Smith.
The Mets, who were down 6-1, regained ground with another two-run homer by Mark Vientos in the fourth inning and then with a run by Tyrone Taylor after a sacrifice fly by Álvarez.
But the Dodgers’ collection of figures stood in the way of the comeback with a three-run eighth roll, which included a double by Betts and a single by Puerto Rican Kiké Hernández.
The next challenge for Ohtani and company is Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, who are back in the World Series after 15 years.
The first game of the World Series will be on Friday at Dodger Stadium, in a duel where a direct confrontation is expected between Judge (58) and Ohtani (54), the best home run hitters in the MLB this season.
“The Yankees are a great team, with great players and coaches. I’m looking forward to playing against them,” Japanese Shohei Ohtani told Fox television.
