YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The Los Angeles Dodgers overcame a five-run deficit with the help of three Yankees defensive miscues and rallying on sacrifice flies from Gavin Lux and Mookie Betts in the eighth inning to beat New York 7-6 in Game 5 on Wednesday night.

Shohei Ohtani, the Dodgers’ record-setting $700 million signing and baseball’s first 50-homer, 50-steal player, went 2 for 19 with no RBIs and had one single after separating his shoulder during a stolen base attempt in Game 2.

Freddie Freeman's Game 1 grand slam was only the start of an all-time World Series performance by the Dodgers' first baseman, who was named the series' Most Valuable Player

Freeman set a major league record for most consecutive World Series games with a home run — a streak of six that began with the last two games of his appearance in the 2021 series with the Atlanta Braves and continued with the first four games against the Yankees.

His streak ended in Game 5, but Freeman's two-RBI single in the fifth inning was key to the Dodgers' comeback victory. His 12 runs batted in across the five-game series tied a World Series record set in 1960.

This is the Dodgers' eighth championship and seventh since leaving Brooklyn for Los Angeles
