After an unforgettable Game 7 at Rogers Centre, the Los Angeles Dodgers clinched the 2025 World Series by narrowly defeating the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 in extra innings. It’s their ninth championship and second title in a row, putting them in the rare company of MLB dynasties. And wow, what a game.
A win for the history books
Saturday, November 2, 2025. Game 7. Tension was sky-high in Toronto. The Blue Jays had built a solid 4-2 lead after six innings, powered by a three-run home run from Bo Bichette off Shohei Ohtani, who was making a gutsy return on three days’ rest. But the Dodgers were not done yet.
In the eighth, Max Muncy brought the Dodgers closer with a solo homer. Then came the moment I’ll be remembering for a long time: Miguel Rojas stepping up in the ninth and blasting a home run to tie the game at 4-4. You could feel the momentum shift instantly. That kind of clutch moment, it’s pure postseason magic.
The tension didn’t fall after that. Extra innings started with everything to play for, and in the 11th, catcher Will Smith sent a deep shot into left, securing a solo home run that would ultimately seal the win. It wasn’t until a double play in the bottom half of the frame that we knew it was official: the Dodgers were champions again. To read Gwen Stefani headlines magical 2025 Disney Christmas Parade
Heroes in Dodger blue
If one name stands out among the Dodgers’ talented roster, it’s Yoshinobu Yamamoto. The Japanese right-hander came into the ninth inning, with the bases loaded, no outs, season on the line—and somehow managed to escape without giving up a run. Every pitch felt like a coin toss. He went on to deliver 2 2/3 scoreless innings, earning his third win of the series and becoming a post-season legend in the making.
Other central players in the night’s drama included:
- Mookie Betts, who started the game-ending double play and anchored the defense throughout
- Teoscar Hernández and Tommy Edman, each driving in runs with clutch sacrifice flies
- Max Muncy, whose eighth-inning homer kept hope alive
- Miguel Rojas, the unsung hero with his game-tying shot in the ninth
I love how this Dodgers squad doesn’t just rely on big names. It’s a deep, committed team, capable of turning to anyone in their lineup for a moment of brilliance.
Back-to-back champions
This title cements the Dodgers as one of the defining teams of their era. Winning consecutive championships is already rare—they’re the first team to do it since the Yankees’ dynasty run from 1998 to 2000. For the National League, no one had done it since the Cincinnati Reds in the mid-70s.
Three titles in six seasons is a serious statement. But it’s not just about the trophies. What makes this version of the Dodgers so impressive is how they’ve been relentlessly competitive year after year. There’s a culture of winning that’s been carefully built since Dave Roberts took the helm in 2016. To read Toho expands into Europe with bold anime distribution moves
A quick word on Roberts: after managing the team to so much postseason success, including three championships, his case for Cooperstown induction is becoming hard to ignore. He’s evolved, steadied the ship during rocky stretches, and clearly knows how to get the best from a mega-talented but well-balanced roster.
Game 7 among the all-time greats
This particular finale joins an elite trio of 11-inning Game 7s in World Series history. The others? The dramatic 1924 faceoff between the Washington Senators and New York Giants, and the 1997 Florida Marlins-Cleveland Indians classic. That’s the level of lore we’re dealing with.
As a viewer, you couldn’t ask for more: long-standing tension, late-game twists, high-wire pitching, and a poetic game-winner under high stakes. It’s the kind of baseball that reminds you why you fell in love with the sport.
After a night like this, it’s hard not to see the 2020s Dodgers as a modern dynasty. Not just for the banners, but for the moments. The feelings. The resilience. They’re writing their legacy one perfect night at a time.
