Eight-time champions! Dodgers beat Yankees in World Series

Although the New York Yankees managed to extend the Major League Baseball (MLB) Series to a fifth game, the Los Angeles Dodgers did not give up and became the 2024 champions.

The Dodgers ended the illusion of the 28th title for the Yankees after eliminating them with a 7-6 victory at Yankee Stadium, adding their eighth title in their history.

The Dodgers were down 0-5 at Yankee Stadium, but came back with five runs in the fifth inning and scored two in the eighth to achieve American baseball glory.

The Los Angeles franchise, with the Japanese Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman as visible faces, had already won the World Series in 1955, 1959, 1963, 1965, 1981, 1988 and 2020.

Freeman and Dominican Teoscar Hernández each drove in two runs today for the Dodgers’ brutal comeback to overcome a 5-0 deficit to win 6-7.

The Dodgers won their second title today under the direction of Dave Roberts. The first occurred in 2020.

The balance in the fifth game of the series was broken by the first home run in the World Series by Aaron Judge, who put two runs on the scoreboard.

Just behind Judge’s hit, Jazz Chisholm Jr. contributed the third run in that first inning.

Those led by Aaron Boone continued with their foot on the accelerator and in the second inning the Mexican Alex Verdugo hit a hit to right field that led Anthony Volpe to the scorer.

Giancarlo Stanton opened the third inning with his seventh home run of the postseason off reliever Ryan Brasier. The score was already 5-0.

The Dodgers came back with everything in the fifth inning and after taking advantage of errors by Judge and Volpe to load the bases, and after two outs, they achieved a five-run rally that left everything the same.

The Dodgers’ first score came on a hit to first base by Mookie Betts, who singled, when Gerrit Cole failed to cover first base, allowing Puerto Rican Kiké Hernández to score.

Freddie Freeman followed with an undisputed lead to the central field that towed Tommy Edman and Will Smith.

Dominican Teoscar Hernández hit a double against the center field wall, to bring Betts and Freeman to the plate.

Everything remained as in the beginning.

The Yankees took the lead again in the sixth, when Soto scored from third base on Stanton’s sacrifice fly to center field.

Los Angeles took the lead for the first time in the eighth inning, when they scored twice, on sacrifice flies to center field by Lux and Betts.

The home team tied it at second base, after one out, in the bottom of the eighth, but Stanton flied out to right field and Anthony Rizzo struck out to end the episode.

Flaherty could not fulfill the assignment of manager Dave Roberts, and left the game after only pitching 1.1 innings, in which he was punished for four runs and struck out only one batter.

Blake Treinen pitched 2.1 scoreless innings to take the win and Walker Buehler (1) pitched the ninth to earn the save for the Dodgers.

For the Yankees, Cole was pitching a no-hitter until the fifth inning, when after two errors by his defense and his own lack of execution on a hit in which he did not cover the first base, he allowed five unearned runs, on his way to 6.2 innings, in which he struck out six opponents.

Tommy Kahnle (0-1), who allowed two runs, was the losing pitcher
