At long last, it’s finally here: The regular season World Series rematch between the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees.
It’s been exactly seven months since the Yankees blew a 5-0 lead in Game 5 and watched the Dodgers celebrate on the field at Yankee Stadium. The Bronx Bombers were completely outplayed in the series by a deep and dangerous Los Angeles team. A perfect storm of factors, namely Aaron Judge vanishing in the playoffs (again), led to the Dodgers’ dominance.
That means these meaningless three games as May bleeds into June are, in a nutshell, a revenge series.
