The Dodgers' manager, David Roberts, is facing a new challenge in the 'autumn classic.' Despite criticisms of his decisions at key moments, the quality of players on both teams leads analysts to predict a six-game matchup. The first game of the 2024 World Series between the Yankees and Dodgers is scheduled for Friday, October 25, and if necessary, all seven games will be played until Saturday, November 2.
The structure of the World Series will maintain the traditional format with two games at the stadium of the team with the best record, three at the other team's stadium, and two more back. This time, the Dodgers will face the Yankees with two games at Dodger Stadium, three at Yankee Stadium, and two more back in Los Angeles.
Before the games, a tribute will be paid to the memory of Fernando 'El Toro' Valenzuela, the iconic Mexican pitcher for the Dodgers who recently passed away. The Dodgers will wear a special patch on their uniforms in honor of Valenzuela during the World Series and throughout the 2025 season.
After 43 years, the Yankees and Dodgers meet again in an exciting 'autumn classic.' The last time they faced each other was in 1981, with a brilliant performance by Valenzuela pitching a complete game in Game Three. Now, both teams have star players and the desire to lift the title.
The Yankees feature a lineup led by Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, Giancarlo Stanton, Gerrit Cole, and Carlos Rodón, under the direction of their manager, Aaron Boone. Meanwhile, the Dodgers boast the presence of Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Kiké Hernández.
The 2024 World Series between the Yankees and Dodgers promises to be exciting, and fans can follow all the games through various platforms, such as Fox Sports Mexico, ESPN, Disney+, and Imagen Televisión. Let the voice say 'playball!'
