STORY: Fans in Los Angeles celebrated as the Dodgers clinched a second straight World Series and their third in six years with a thrilling 5-4, extra-innings win over the Toronto Blue Jays in Game Seven on Saturday (November 1), bolstering their credentials as Major League Baseball's dominant team of the era.

Backed by one of MLB's largest payrolls and boasting a constellation of stars, including the incomparable Shohei Ohtani and World Series MVP Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the preseason favorites absorbed year-long scrutiny and delivered again.

With the dramatic victory, the Dodgers became MLB's first repeat champions since the New York Yankees won three in a row from 1998 to 2000.

Shortstop Miguel Rojas tied the game with a solo homer in the ninth before catcher Will Smith hit the winning home run in the 11th inning and MVP Yoshinobu Yamamoto closed out the game by getting Blue Jays Alejandro Kirk to ground into a double play.

"Just feeling so amazing, this team did what looks like it wasn't going to happen. And after everything that our city has been through this year, it is really... amazing to witness history. That game was, that'll go down in history. I think 11 innings, we came back from behind down three runs. I mean Miguel Rojas wasn't even in the game in the beginning and they brought him in and he delivered. Will Smith and Yamamoto is the greatest to ever do it. He solidified his mark as one of the greatest pitchers of all time."

"I mean, it has to be Yoshi. He absolutely kept us in the game in the end. I thought that the play by Andy Pages with catching after he had been taken out of the game absolutely solidified him as why he's on the team and why he wears the Dodger uniform. No matter how much he's out, he comes back in and catches what he needs to. I love Mookie Betts. I feel like he is ride-or-die Dodger, Shohei, of course, superstar, Will Smith. He's always watching. You can't make me pick one. You can't make me pick one.”
