The Dodgers did what no franchise in MLB has done this century…they went back-to-back!
In an epic game 7, the Dodgers refused to give up staving off elimination with a home run by Miguel Rojas in the ninth and now there’s a new most popular Will Smith in Los Angeles after the catcher hit the game winning home run in the top of the 11th inning.
Smith connected in the 11th for the first extra-inning homer in a winner-take-all title game, and Miguel Rojas became the first player to hit a tying home run in the ninth inning of a Game 7. On a roller-coaster night of see-sawing emotions, the Dodgers outlasted the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 Saturday to become the first repeat champion in a quarter century.
“You dream of those moments,” Smith said after the 4-hour, 7-minute thriller. “I’ll remember that for forever.”
Can the Dodgers make it a three-peat and put more money in Pat Riley’s pocket (since he owns the trademark)?
The oddsmakers at BetOnline.ag think so.
