fifth World Series, ever, in which one team is coming off an LCS sweep and the other enters off an LCS seven-game series. In each of the previous four instances, the team that won the seven-game LCS went on to win the World Series. Two of those were World Series sweeps, while the other pair were decided in five games.

Matchup History

This will be the first postseason meeting between the teams, but they did meet three times in the 2025 MLB season. The Dodgers won two of those three games in an August series in Los Angeles. All-time, the Dodgers are 19–11 versus the Jays, with a winning record both at home (9–6) and on the road (10–5).

Dodgers Notes

Eight times a winner of the Fall Classic, a ninth World Series championship would tie the Red Sox and Athletics franchises for the third-most in MLB history. Los Angeles is also seeking to become the first National League repeat champ since The Big Red Machine of the Cincinnati Reds won back-to-back in 1975–1976.46:{"termId":219121,"name":"Ross Kelly","slug":"ross-kelly","avatar":"https://www.theepochtimes.com/assets/uploads/2024/06/06/id5663766-RossKelly_WEB.jpg","taxonomy":"authors","termTaxonomyId":218537,"description":"Ross Kelly is a sports journalist who has been published by ESPN, CBS and USA Today.
