The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays delivered a classic in Game 3 of the World Series on Monday with an 18-inning marathon that ended with Dodgers catcher Freddie Freeman’s walk-off home run and a final of 6–5.
The Dodgers and the Blue Jays matched the longest ever World Series game in terms of extra innings, but they came short of surpassing the time of the 2018 marathon between the Dodgers and the Boston Red Sox. Monday’s game was six hours and 39 minutes, but the 2018 contest went for seven hours and 20 minutes. That game also ended in Los Angeles in a walk-off home run by Dodgers infielder Max Muncy. The Red Sox ultimately won the series 4–3, but Muncy gave Dodgers fans something to remember.
