Amazing ending! Hubs gave up and went to bed 10 minutes before that Grand Slam! 🤣

Two to Zip, Dodgers. Looks like Ohtani popped a shoulder out of his socket and is questionable for the rest of the series.

I don’t really care who wins but I like to see each team at full strength.

Today is a travel day so perhaps he can recover and play tomorrow.

The Dodgers sure are creating a lot of very long faces at Yankee Stadium.

My guess is that there will be a game 7. (Nothing more exciting than a game 7). Think of the money generated.

GO DODGERS!

No game 6 or 7!! WOOHOO!! Congratulations Dodgers! My life long home team. What a great series, and amazing final game tonight! Yankees almost sent us back to LA, but Dodgers rallied and WON!! Freddie Freeman is incredible, and truly earned that MVP trophy, but what a fantastic team effort! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Not a great World Series for the superstars!
 
Ohtani had 2 hits, 0 RBI, 0 home runs and batted .105.

Judge had 4 hits, 3 RBI, 1 home run, and batted .222.

The nuances and rules of baseball, to me, come in the same category as cricket is to most Americans.
However, I have seen all the game's highlights, and it was most entertaining.
Mr Freeman's next contract and pay talks, could be quite eye watering.

What I do not understand is, what does the practice of filling the mouth and chewing half a gum tree, or spitting copious amounts of nutshells do to aid hitting the ball? :shrug:

Even though the Dodgers won in five games, the Series was very close. One of the best World Series that I have seen in years. Three of the games came down to the last inning where one of the teams had the tying or go ahead home run on base or at the plate.

In game 1, the Dodgers were down to their last out in the 10th inning before Freeman hit his grand slam. If he had made an out, the Yankees would have won game 1.

In game 2, the Yankees were down 2 in the 9th inning and had the bases loaded with one out and failed to score.

And in game 5, the Yankees had the tying run at the plate in the bottom of the 9th but failed to score.

However, the 5th inning of game 5 was perhaps the worst inning in World Series history. I did a quick search and I think 5 unearned runs in an inning is the most ever in World Series history! Two errors and the pitcher failing to cover first on a routine grounder.

The first legitimate World Series championship for the doyers since 1988.
