The two best teams in baseball will meet on Tuesday night when the Dodgers take on the Rays in Game 1 of the World Series.
Los Angeles finished the shortened regular season with the best record in MLB at 43–17, while Tampa Bay (40–20) sat atop the American League standings. Both clubs endured a rough League Championship Series round that stretched to decisive Game 7s.
The Rays blew a 3–0 series lead to the Astros, but bounced back in Game 7 with a strong pitching performance by Charlie Morton and an early two-run homer by rookie sensation Randy Arozarena to punch their ticket to the Fall Classic.
