Things are looking up for Los Angeles.
A week ago the Lakers took home the 2020 NBA Championship trophy. Then, last Sunday, the Los Angeles Dodgers won against the Atlanta Braves in a crucial National League Championship game. Giving the city something to celebrate for the first time in a while. Who knows, maybe Angelenos could see two professional sports championship wins this year?

After trailing by two runs in Game 7, their comeback fate was sealed with Cody Bellinger’s seventh-inning home run. The team won 4-3 against the Braves and made franchise history in becoming the first squad to win a postseason series after facing a 3-to-1 game deficit.

This incredible win takes the Dodgers to the World Series starting on Tuesday in Arlington, Texas against the Tampa Bay Rays. And it’s taking place at the Globe Life Field, the Texas Rangers’ $1.2 billion new home. It will be their third World Series in four years, but the L.A. Dodgers haven’t brought home the trophy since 1988.
The 116th World Series begins on Tuesday 20 October and The Fall Classic will be contested between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Tampa Bay Rays with the Dodgers as the favorites.
