Dodgers repeat with dramatic Game 7 win | JQJO

In a marathon postseason capped by a 5-4, 11-inning Game 7 over the Blue Jays, the Dodgers became the first repeat World Series champion in 25 years, securing the franchise’s ninth title and third in six seasons. Their path featured two extra-inning Series wins — including an 18-inning epic. Defining moments ranged from Mookie Betts’ wheel play in the NLDS and Shohei Ohtani’s three-homer, 10-strikeout NLCS show to Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s consecutive complete games, Clayton Kershaw’s bases-loaded escape, Will Klein’s four scoreless, Kiké Hernández’s Game 6 rescue, Miguel Rojas’ Game 7 heroics, and Will Smith’s go-ahead blast.
