Los Angeles Dodgers Win First World Series Since 1988

The Los Angeles Dodgers have claimed the 2024 World Series title, defeating the New York Yankees 4-1, marking their first championship win in 36 years. The Dodgers, led by star player Shohei Ohtani, showcased a powerful offense throughout the season, ranking highly in key hitting metrics. They are now finalists for the 2024 Team Silver Slugger Award, competing against the Arizona Diamondbacks, having excelled in slugging percentage and on-base plus slugging. Looking ahead, the Dodgers are also positioned to enhance their roster for 2025, with potential trades for top pitchers like Garrett Crochet from the Chicago White Sox to address their starting rotation needs. Despite injuries affecting key players throughout the season, the Dodgers' depth and resilience were crucial to their success. With the team expected to return from injuries, they are anticipated to be heavy favorites for another championship next season.
