Been bleeding Dodger blue since 1965, so looking for the Ohtani led team to beat up the hated Yankees and claim the World Series championship! This Connecticut born fan can't wait to celebrate!!

Aaron Judge of the Hated Yankees might have something to say about that.

The TV ratings should be through the roof. Best possible matchup.
Of course......Go Yankees!

They used to meet a lot more often when I was younger!
In the 5th grade when we listened on the radio in class as Koufax and Drysdale broke my heart. That next month wasn't very nice, either. . .

Probably obscure for a lot of people. Assume you are referring to JFK assassination.

Indeed. It was an impactful time for that young kid. Mickey Mantle was probably my biggest hero.

Default Dodger Blue For Life

We moved from Miami to SoCal during the 1981 world series between the Yankees and Dodgers. I will always remember driving across the desert with the ball of flame setting in the west while we hung on every word of Vin Scully giving his colorful description. From that moment on we were hooked. And if we weren't listening to Vin doing the game on radio or TV, we were in our regular seats above the third base line. We were at the final home game that Vin called which is a moment I will always remember. 38 years as fans in SoCal and now 5 more as fans in Florida. I wonder if there's a Dodgers club in The Villages?

I remember the first time I saw Mantle play. Big thrill for a small kid!

And I remember when he died. It was on August 13, 1995. I was in my early 40s but that was the first time that I felt old. He would have been 93 last Sunday.

Amazing with all his injuries how great he was.
