The Los Angeles Dodgers have actually won the 2024 World Series over the New York Yankees, and they did so in historic style.
At the start of Game 5 on Wednesday night, it looked guaranteeing that the Yankees would promote a Game 6 as they took an early 5– 0 lead through the very first 3 innings. They scored 3 of those runs in the very first inning alone thanks to back-to-back crowning achievement from Aaron Judge and Jazz Chisholm Jr.
This early lead didn't discourage the Dodgers from thinking they might still clinch the series. They scored 5 runs in the 5th inning to connect the video game since of numerous Yankees mistakes. The Yankees took the lead once again in the 6th inning, however then the Dodgers generated 2 more runs in the 8th since of 2 sacrifice flies. They wound up winning 7– 6.
The Dodgers' return from routing 5– 0 marks the only time an MLB group has actually clinched the World Series after tracking by a minimum of 5 runs, per OptaSTATS. This indicates the Dodgers' resurgence on Wednesday night is the greatest in World Series history.
The @Dodgers are the first string in MLB postseason history to fall back by 5+ runs, remove that deficit, fall behind once again and yet still win the video game.
They did it to clinch the World Series title.
