The 2024 World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers!

I'm feeling great joy as last night my baseball team, the Los Angeles Dodgers, beat the Yankees and won the World Series!

This is the fourth time the Dodgers have won the World Series since I was a teenager, following 1981, 1988, and 2020, and it's the eighth time in franchise history.

The Dodgers reached this point despite a daunting number of injuries this season, especially losses to their pitching staff. They played in the World Series with just three starting pitchers - one of whom, in the stuff of legend, came out in relief on two days' rest to record the final three outs of Game 5.

From Game 1 to Game 5, this World Series featured incredible comebacks, making for an unforgettable end to a great year.

Go Dodgers!
