Dodgers Win World Series in Dramatic Game 5

The Los Angeles Dodgers clinched their eighth World Series title with a dramatic comeback victory over the New York Yankees in Game 5, overcoming a 5-0 deficit to win 7-6. The Yankees' defeat was marked by a series of defensive errors in the fifth inning, including a rare mistake by Aaron Judge and a failure by Gerrit Cole to cover first base, which allowed the Dodgers to tie the game. Despite strong early performances from key players like Judge and Cole, the Yankees could not maintain their lead. The Dodgers' Freddie Freeman was pivotal, tying a World Series record with 12 RBIs, while Mookie Betts added significant contributions. The Yankees' loss has ignited discussions about potential changes, including the future of manager Aaron Boone, whose contract includes a club option for 2025. This loss extends the Yankees' championship drought to 15 years, their second-longest in history.
