World Series 2024: Complete schedule for Yankees vs Dodgers 7-Game blockbuster
After a lengthy regular season and tremendous playoffs, the World Series is now set. Two of the most popular teams in the MLB, the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers, are now set to square off in the finals.
In what might be a dream scenario for the MLB from a marketing standpoint, one of arguably the two biggest baseball players in Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani will soon become a World Series champion.
There is a chance that the upcoming series between the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers could become an instant classic given the firepower on both rosters. The first game of the series is set to begin on Friday at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles.
Here's a closer look at the complete World Series schedule between the Yankees and Dodgers
Since the Los Angeles Dodgers finished with the better record in the regular season (98-64), they will have home field advantage over the New York Yankees (94-68) throughout the World Series. This means that the Dodgers could potentially play four games at home, where as the Yankees could only host three.
For those hoping to tune into all of the action, all seven games will be broadcast live on FOX. Given the amount of superstars who will be in action such as Juan Soto, Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge, it's safe to say that this showdown will be must-watch television.
Yankees and Dodgers will compete in the World Series for first time since 1981
Despite being two of the most popular and successful teams in the MLB, the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers will meet in the World Series for the first time since 1981.
Even though the two teams have not competed for a title since 1981, this will be the 12th time when they battle it out for MLB's ultimate prize. The Yankees lead the all-time World Series matchup 8-3.
