I Los Angeles Dodgers they qualified for the World Series, the Major League Baseball finals, the US baseball championship. They beat the New York Mets 4 to 2 in the National League Championship Series, the best-of-7 series that determines the team that will go to the World Series against the winner of the other MLB league, the American League. They will play the World Series against the New York Yankees, who won the American League finals against the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday.
The Dodgers have won the World Series 7 times (the last in 2020); the Yankees, on the other hand, are the winningest team in MLB history, with 27 championships won, but they have not qualified for the World Series since 2009, when they won against the Philadelphia Phillies.
The Japanese Shohei Ohtani plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who will participate in the World Series for the first time but is already considered one of the best players ever, above all for his ability to have an exceptional performance both as a hitter and as a pitcher (even if in last season he did not pitch due to an elbow problem). Last December he signed the richest contract ever in the history of American sport with the Dodgers.
