Los Angeles overcame 3-0 and 4-2 deficits and escaped a bases-loaded jam in the ninth to become baseball's first repeat champion since the 1998-2000 New York Yankees won three titles in a row.

The Blue Jays could not finish the job, losing in extra innings to the Los Angeles Dodgers, who repeat as World Series champions.

With the victory, the Dodgers are the first team to repeat as world champions since the New York Yankees did it between 1998 and 2000.
