31 october 2024 в 18:13
The Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees played in what can be called one of the most famous World Series matchups in history. It was the 12th time that the Dodgers and Yankees met in a previously played World Series. From the 1940s to the 1980s, both teams were rivals from different regions, as the Dodgers were originally based in Brooklyn before moving to Los Angeles in 1958. In the battle between the East and West Coast, the Dodgers won the first three games before closing out the series in the fifth game.
Find out how many World Series titles the Dodgers now have and other details about the team’s celebration in 2024 below.
The Dodgers' last World Series win was in 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the celebration was less traditional. At that time, the Dodgers played against the Tampa Bay Rays. They played the entire series at Globe Life Field in Texas, where capacity was limited to about 25% to comply with COVID-19 recommendations.
The entire 2020 MLB season was also shortened due to the pandemic, with only 60 games played.
By 2024, the Dodgers had won a total of eight World Series titles.
The parade is scheduled for Friday, November 1. It will begin at 11 a.m. at Gloria Molina Grand Park near City Hall in downtown Los Angeles. Mayor Karen Bass will officially start the parade, and Dodgers players will ride through DTLA on double-decker buses, according to Yahoo! Sports.
For those who cannot attend the parade, Dodger Stadium will host a paid celebration where fans can watch on screens. The gates, reportedly, will open at 9 a.m., and the celebration is expected to start around noon.
After winning three consecutive games in the series, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters: «Our guys are very ready, very hungry for the parade. So nothing will stop this, nothing»
