World Series 2018: Dates, TV Schedule and More for MLB Championship

It has been 30 years since the Los Angeles Dodgers last won a World Series, and a look back at their 1988 victory over the Oakland A's is one of the most joyous moments in team history.

The Dodgers were an overachieving bunch in 1988. They had a brilliant leader in Orel Hershiser as their No. 1 pitcher, but the rest of Tommy Lasorda's team did not appear to have enough going for it to compete with the powerful Oakland A's.

Oakland won 104 games that season, and they seemed to be on a non-stop roll to the World Series championship.
