What a thrill. For the first time in 29 long years, the Dodgers will be playing in the World Series. And finally, after years of regrets, defeats and disappointments, the city of Los Angeles can breathe deeply knowing they made it.
And while the war has yet to be won, this has to feel huge for a team that has continuously underperformed in the postseason. The Dodgers took down the defending World Champion Cubs and now await their opponent.
Justin Turner and Chris Taylor took home co-MVP honors for the series, and rightfully so. How could you not give it to the guy who walked off Game 2 or the guy who came from nowhere and hustled his team all the way to the fall classic?
