The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees 7-6 in game five on Wednesday in the Yankee Stadium in New York, clinching the world series with a 4-1 victory.

The Dodgers were trailing 5-0 by Gerrit Cole's dominant pitching before they made a big inning in the fifth top that tied the score by 5-5 through Aaron Judge, Anthony Volpe, and Anthony Rizzo's consecutive field errors.

The New York Yankees regained the lead in the sixth inning, but two sacrifice flies by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the top of the 8th inning put the visitors ahead.

The Dodgers made a gamble by bringing in Walker Buehler, the starting pitcher of game 3, to close out the last inning.

Despite these uncertainties, Walker Buehler delivered a clutch performance, becoming the tossing pitcher of the 2024 World Series by getting one groundout and two strikeouts against the Yankees' hitters.

First baseman Freddie Freeman won the MVP of the 2024 World Series by hitting four homers and driving in 12 runs across a total of five games. His comeback grand slam homerun in the overtime inning in the first game had changed the mood of the World Series.

With this victory, the Dodgers have now won two World Series in the last five years, also having won during the shortened season in 2020.

The Dodgers were dominant in the concentration of the batting line and the fielder's defense throughout the series.

This marks the third championship win for the Dodgers’ manager Dave Roberts, who led the team in 2020 and won as a player in 2004 with the Boston Red Sox.

The Dodgers' victory is also a career milestone for Japanese superstar Shohei Othani, earning his first World Series champion title. Shohei Ohtani made a historical record of 50 stolen bases and 50 homers this year.

The series result disappointed the Yankees fans and players, who had waited for the Yankees World Series for 15 years.

The New York Yankees came dangerously close to being swept until game four due to the lack of pitchers' quality and Aaron Judge's slump in the postseason.

The most dominant player in 2024, Aaron Judge's bat has been predicted to be crucial for the Yankees' success, since he had stats of 58 HR, .322 AVG, 1.159 OPS, wRC+ 218, fWAR 11.2, and bWAR 10.8.

However, his activities in the World Series were shockingly poor. He made crucial errors and had a significant amount of strikeouts against the Dodgers pitchers.

Despite the lack of concentration in other hitters, Juan Soto and Giancarlo Stanton have shown more consistent quality at plate appearances than the others.

Although the Yankees had all the attention of citizens through the dream match between the two prestigious teams of all time, they saw their rival winning the trophy in their home stadium.

The New York Yankees, who entered the World Series for the first time since 2009, have postponed their 28th World Series victory to the next opportunity.

The showdown between the predicted MVP of the American League and National League, Aaron Judge, and Shohei Othani's face-off ends with Othani coming out on top, as he secured his first win in the World Series.
