The 2024 World Series will feature two of the most iconic clubs in the history of baseball: the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees.
The 2024 World Series brings together two of baseball's most legendary franchises as the Los Angeles Dodgers face off against the New York Yankees in a renewal of this historic pairing.
Both teams enter the Fall Classic with rich histories and championship aspirations, reigniting a rivalry that spans decades.
The Los Angeles Dodgers, who boasted the best regular-season record in Major League Baseball at 98-64, earned their place in the World Series by defeating the New York Mets 4-2 in the NLCS.
Prior to that, they outlasted the San Diego Padres with a hard-fought 3-2 series win in the NLDS.
The Dodgers will be powered by Shohei Ohtani, the two-way sensation who is making his World Series debut after signing with the team in the offseason.
Ohtani leads a star-studded roster that includes Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman as the Dodgers aim for their first title since 2020.
On the other side, the New York Yankees return to the World Series for the first time since 2009, continuing their legacy as the team with the most World Series appearances with 41.
The Yankees punched their ticket to the Fall Classic with a 4-1 ALCS win over the Cleveland Guardians, after dispatching the Kansas City Royals 3-1 in the ALDS.
Led by Aaron Judge, the Yankees finished the regular season with a 94-68 record and are determined to claim their 28th championship.
This series marks the 12th postseason meeting between the Dodgers and Yankees, the most in MLB history.
New York holds the edge in their historic rivalry with an 8-3 series lead, though this will be their first playoff clash since the 1981 World Series.
