Dodgers' Justin Turner: Not Celebrating World Series with Team Was a 'Big Void'

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner wasn't able to celebrate the final out of the 2020 World Series with his teammates after testing positive for COVID-19, a moment he referred to Friday as a "big void."

"As happy and excited as I was when Julio [Urias] got the last out, it felt like I was sitting there watching for the third time in my career a team getting to celebrate a World Series," Turner said, per Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times.

The Dodgers had suffered World Series losses in 2017 and 2018 before finally coming through with a title in 2020.
