The Dodgers grew to become the primary group to rally from a 5-0 deficit to clinch a World Series, defeating the New York Yankees, 7-6, staging main comebacks within the fifth and eighth innings.
Gerrit Cole was glorious in 6.2 innings, however poor Yankees protection – together with Cole himself – led to 5 unearned runs within the fifth. The Dodgers then took the lead for good within the eighth and received a standout efficiency from their bullpen, notably Blake Treinen and Walker Buehler, to shut it out.
