The Dodgers saw an opportunity and pounced, as Freddie Freeman and Teoscar Hernandez each drove in two runs to tie the game at five.
New York regeted the direct in the sixth, but they were aget gifted another chance in the eighth. L.A. loaded the bases before recording an out off Tommy Kahnle, prompting Aaron Boone to go with sealr Luke Weaver.

New York had runners on first and second with one out in the bottom half, but Giancarlo Stanton popped out, and Anthony Rizzo struck out to end the danger, as sealr Blake Treinen endd his 2.1 scoreless innings of toil.
Walker Buehler came on for the save, and he reexhausted Anthony Volpe, Austin Wells, and Alex Verdugo in order to protect the title.
The Yankees were aiming to become the first team to ever force a Game 6 ever trailing 3-0 in a series – only three other instances had even gone to five games.

However, only the Dodgers will be flying back to Los Angeles, and it will be for their World Series parade.
It’s Shohei Ohtani’s first championship in his very first trip to the postseason – for Betts and Freeman, it’s their second. Clayton Kershaw will also get a second ring despite an shortend season due to injury.
