Dodgers Edge Blue Jays in Epic Game 7 to Clinch Back-to-Back World Series Titles
What an unforgettable night of baseball it turned out to be! The Los Angeles Dodgers pulled off one of the most dramatic comebacks in recent World Series history, defeating the Toronto Blue Jays 5–4 in an 11-inning thriller to capture their second consecutive championship. It was a true test of grit, nerve, and endurance — the kind of game that keeps fans on the edge of their seats until the final out.
In front of a roaring crowd at Toronto’s Rogers Centre, the Dodgers faced an uphill climb early on. The Blue Jays, hungry for their first World Series title in more than three decades, jumped out to a 3–0 lead in the third inning thanks to Bo Bichette’s thunderous three-run homer off Shohei Ohtani. It looked like momentum was all with the Canadians as Ohtani, the Dodgers’ star two-way player, struggled on the mound and was pulled early.
But the Dodgers didn’t panic. They slowly chipped away at the deficit, showing the composure and belief of champions. Will Smith, who had been reliable all series, delivered the defining moment — a massive solo home run in the top of the 11th inning that broke a tense 4–4 tie. That single swing of the bat silenced the Toronto faithful and sent Dodgers fans into euphoria.

The Blue Jays, though, refused to go quietly. With the tying run on third in the bottom of the 11th, Alejandro Kirk grounded into a double play, ending Toronto’s dream and sealing the Dodgers’ ninth World Series title. Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who came out of the bullpen for the Dodgers after pitching deep into Game 6, was heroic once again. He closed out the final inning and was rightfully named the series’ Most Valuable Player.
This wasn’t a straightforward win for Los Angeles. They were outscored across the series, and the Blue Jays often looked like the sharper side. Yet, when it mattered most, the Dodgers’ experience and resilience shone through. Veterans like Max Muncy and Miguel Rojas hit clutch home runs to keep their team alive, while the bullpen, featuring starters pressed into relief duty, held firm under incredible pressure.
For Toronto, it was heartbreak of the cruelest kind. They were two outs away from glory, only to watch the title slip away in extra innings. Still, this was a team that captured the imagination of fans across Canada — a young, fiery squad that pushed the mighty Dodgers to the limit.
And so, history was made. The Dodgers became the first MLB team in 25 years to win back-to-back World Series titles — the last to do so being the New York Yankees in 2000. Under manager Dave Roberts, Los Angeles has now claimed three championships in six years, firmly cementing their place as baseball’s modern dynasty.
For the Blue Jays, the wait continues. For the Dodgers, the champagne flows once again — and the dynasty lives on.
