The Los Angeles Dodgers have secured their spot in the World Series for the 22nd time in franchise history, triumphing over the New York Mets 10–5 in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series at Dodger Stadium. This victory brings them tantalizingly close to their ultimate goal — just four wins away from championship glory.

The Fall Classic kicks off on Friday at Dodger Stadium, featuring a historic matchup against the American League champion New York Yankees. This marks the twelfth clash between these iconic franchises, and the first since 1981, igniting excitement among fans and players alike.

In a testament to their depth and versatility, the Dodgers relied on a collaborative bullpen approach to reach the World Series, eschewing a traditional fourth starter. For the third time this postseason, they showcased a bullpen game, utilizing seven pitchers who rose to the occasion under pressure. Despite facing significant challenges, the Dodgers' relievers stranded an impressive 13 Mets base runners, conceding only four runs over nine innings.

Offensively, the Dodgers unleashed a barrage of runs, led by NLCS MVP Tommy Edman, who drove in four crucial runs. Will Smith and Teoscar Hernández also made significant contributions, delivering key hits that fueled the team’s victory.

As the Dodgers prepare to face the Yankees, anticipation builds for this monumental showdown. Fans across the nation are eager to witness two powerhouse teams, each brimming with star talent. After a 43-year wait for this matchup, the excitement is palpable, and the stakes have never been higher.
