The LA Dodgers are the 2024 World Series champions, defeating the NY Yankees in five games to claim their eighth franchise title. The superstar-led Blue Crew secured the championship, with Freddie Freeman hitting home runs in Games 1 through 4 and being named the MVP. Despite a sprained ankle, Freeman made history by homering in six consecutive World Series games dating back to 2020, propelling the high-powered LA offense to victory.
In Game 5, NY made several defensive errors, but LA standouts like Mookie Betts and Walker Buehler helped seal the deal. Superstar Shohei Ohtani also earned his first World Series ring, LA secured their first title since 2020, and the Dodgers fans can be reassured with their superstar core intact for the future.
As LA basks in their victory, the baseball offseason is already buzzing with speculation about where top free agent Juan Soto will land. The four-time All-Star had a standout season in NY and is set for a significant contract. The Yanks made a big move to acquire Soto last year, but there are doubts about his future with the team as he eyes a potentially record-breaking deal. Where will Soto end up next?
