2024 World Series is here and ready to go – Episode 28


Listen Later

Today we’re diving into some major baseball news. The 2024 World Series matchup is set: it’s the New York Yankees facing off against the Los Angeles Dodgers. I’ll break down the historical rivalry between these two teams, who have clashed in the World Series 11 times. The Yankees currently lead the rivalry with eight wins to the Dodgers’ three.

Let’s recap the history quickly:

  • The Yankees dominated the early matchups, winning the first five times they faced the Dodgers, from 1941 through 1953.
  • The Dodgers got their first series win in 1955, but the Yankees have largely kept the upper hand.
  • The last time these two teams met in the Series was in 1981, where the Dodgers emerged victorious.
  • Predictions for This Series

    While I’m personally rooting for the Dodgers, I think they might have the edge this year. With stars like Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, and Freddie Freeman, the Dodgers have strong talent, even with some injuries in their pitching lineup. The Yankees, led by Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole, have an impressive roster too, but I feel the Dodgers’ superstar lineup is more effective overall.

    In other sports news, I’ll be updating on my fantasy football league and how my team has been performing. We’ll also touch on the upcoming NFL games and a few player injuries to watch. Next episode will focus on fantasy football and a recap of the first two games of the World Series. Tune in every Wednesday for more sports updates, predictions, and fun analysis.
