Wrong. The White Sox had a great run in the 50s and 60s, but just didn't have enough offense to compete with the Yankees during that stretch. 1959 the lone exception. https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/CHW/index.shtml See team records in 1963/64/65.

99% sure the other player with them celebrating together was Roki Sasaki. It's going to get increasingly harder for other teams to break that stranglehold on the Japanese and Korean markets if M.Murakami also signs with LA.

At least my prediction of an Ohtani steal attempt was correct. Just couldn't hold the bag with his momentum pulling him off.

https://nypost.com/2025/10/28/sports/justin-bieber-taunts-shohei-ohtani-at-world-series-game-with-wife-hailey/ All four of Ohtani’s hits went for extra bases, becoming the first player to accomplish the feat in the World Series since Frank Isbell of the Chicago White Sox in 1906.

Not exactly...it was about one more year, just like Machado. "The story starts right after the Atlanta Braves’ 2021 World Series win. Freeman was a lifelong fixture for many Braves fans, and he’d made it known he wanted to stay in Atlanta. The Braves were on board too—at first. They offered Freeman multiple deals, reflecting their desire to keep him in their clubhouse. But as fans would come to learn, the smooth process they envisioned would spiral into months of drama and miscommunication. At the heart of the breakdown was his agent Casey Close, who many believe failed to keep the Braves updated during the critical stages of Freeman’s free agency. Close’s strategy revolved around squeezing out an extra year for Freeman, pushing the Braves beyond what they felt comfortable with for a then 32-year-old first baseman." https://atlbravescountry.com/the-real-reason-the-braves-lost-freddie-freeman-quit-blaming-gm-alex-anthopoulos/

https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/46753415/world-series-game-3-history-18-innings-los-angeles-dodgers-walkoff-freddie-freeman Games don't become classics without efforts like Will Klein's -- and he had an admirer who wanted to acknowledge that. Into the Dodgers' clubhouse strode Sandy Koufax, his eminence of Dodgers pitching, who, at 89 years old, looked no worse for the wear at 12:48 a.m. Koufax walked up to Klein, stuck out his hand, looked him in the eyes and said: "Nice going." This was that kind of game, the one that forges bonds between a Hall of Famer and a man with 22⅔ career major league innings who didn't make the Dodgers' roster in any of the previous three rounds of the postseason. The kind of game that prompted Klein to unlock his phone just to see how many messages he had, only for him to scroll ... and keep scrolling ... and keep scrolling to the point he just stopped. The kind of game that made Klein marvel to a friend in the clubhouse: "Seventy-two. Can you believe it?"

Not so easy to second guess NOT going to Shane Bieber there...as he's the G4 starter in 17 hours. Should have been Gausman...but TOR with backs against the wall now. Dodgers will be significant favorites with Ohtani going.

17 hours until game time lol avoided using Yamamoto barely

Yamamoto would have been in there with bases loaded G6 starter more rest if it goes back to Toronto

Is that Marlins' man behind the plate now? Ohtani 9th ab 17 total bases 9 times on base in a row

He never pitched like this for SD against LA in 2018/19 oh it's 1115 LA time game started at 5 there Klein’s longest outing 2 IP in regular season

ridiculous call on Muncy not even close to a swing Blue Jays survive another near homer to 17 one from record

approaching 6 hours 2:05 pm China time lol Red Bull Gives You Wings midnight in LA I think

Vladdy snacking on watermelon and grinning. Toronto also down to basically Guerrero Jr. as their offense...

"Average defender at Guaranteed Rate" (Darren) Daulton Varsho pushes the game to the 16th Ohtani on base eight consecutive times...another record should be 14 total bases too, tying another record

Looks like Guardians' Stephen Kwan might join Team Samurai due to grandparents' ancestry https://www.thescore.com/mlb/news/3202350

Times on base: 6 now 7 Spotlight: Kenny Lofton, Indians, 1995 World Series Game 3: Lofton was a constant spark during Cleveland's run to the World Series in 1995, and his performance in Game 3 helped the team rally to a walk-off win over the Braves in 11 innings. Batting leadoff, the speedster reached safely in every plate appearance, collecting three hits and three walks. More importantly, his times on base resulted in three runs for Cleveland, which proved critical in its one-run win. But, ultimately, Cleveland fell to Atlanta in six games. Others with 6: Stan Hack, Cubs, 1945 World Series Game 6 (12 innings) Overall postseason record: 6 (Kerry Carpenter of the Tigers is the only other player to do it in the postseason, achieving the feat in Game 5 of the 2025 ALDS, a thriller that went 15 innings.)

Dave Roberts' reaction hilarious...as well as the bat drop at home
