If Shohei Ohtani and the Dodgers have their way, it’ll soon be replaced by the Commissioner’s Trophy, signifying a second straight World Series championship, a feat last accomplished by the New York Yankees 25 years ago. “I think everybody is locked and loaded and ready to see some history,” shortstop Mookie Betts said. “We’re ready to make it.”

The 2025 World Series is finally upon us. The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays will face off in the Fall Classic beginning Friday night, a battle between the perennial contenders and a team that hasn't been to the World Series since 1993.

The Dodgers’ World Series opponent will be decided Monday when the Seattle Mariners face the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 7 of the American League Championship Series in Toronto. If the Mariners win, the Series will begin at Dodger Stadium.
