On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers won their second straight World Series with an incredible Game 7 comeback, which took 11 innings to beat the Blue Jays in Toronto. Yoshinobu Yamamoto started and won Game 6, then got the final eight outs of Game 7 to win World Series MVP. Will Smith hit the game-winning home run in the 11th inning of Game 7, after his 73 innings behind the plate were the most by any catcher in World Series history. There was also the Kiké Hernández alert double play to end Game 6, with a throw that was expertly scooped at second base by Miguel Rojas for the final out of the game. Rojas then hit the game-tying home run in the ninth inning of Game 7 to send the series finale into extras. The Dodgers are the first MLB team to win consecutive titles since the New York Yankees in 1998-2000. A championship parade is coming Monday in downtown Los Angeles, plus a celebration at Dodger Stadium. The Three-Inning Save is part of the Fans First Sports Network. Hosted by Eric Stephen and Jacob Burch, with questions from Craig Minami. Produced by Brian Salvatore. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
