The 2024 World Series is set to be a thrilling showdown between two of Major League Baseball’s most iconic teams, the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers. The highly anticipated series kicks off on Friday at 5:08 pm local time (01:08 GMT) at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, marking the 120th edition of the best-of-seven classic.
One of the key storylines in this year’s series is the headlining battle between Dodgers’ superstar Shohei Ohtani and Yankees’ power hitter Aaron Judge. This marks the first time since 1956 that the National League (NL) and American League home run leaders will face off in the World Series, adding to the excitement. Both Ohtani and Judge are top candidates for MVP in their respective leagues, making this a dream match-up for baseball fans worldwide.
The Yankees and Dodgers are meeting in the World Series for the first time since 1981, and it’s the 12th time in history, the most of any match-up in the championship round. With Ohtani’s record-breaking 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases this season, and Judge’s impressive 58 home runs and .322 batting average, this series promises to be one for the ages.
