MLB World Series Latest News

The World Series is set to begin, and now the experts’ picks are in. The 2020 Fall Classic between the Dodgers and Rays starts Tuesday with Game 1 at 8 p.m.

Fifty-eight of the 71 voters (82%) picked Los Angeles to defeat the Rays and win the World Series. Only 13 voters picked Tampa Bay to win.

The Dodgers have star power and experience — they just won their third NL pennant in the past four years, and they’ve won eight division titles in a row. After coming up just short in their last two World Series appearances, MLB.com’s experts think this is finally the Dodgers’ year to win their first championship since 1988.

Cody Bellinger had dislocated his right shoulder on Sunday night, and he homered anyway. Clayton Kershaw’s October reputation preceded him, and he excelled anyway.

The LA Dodgers take game 1 with an 8-3 victory against the Tampa Bay Rays.

The Rays’ Game 2 victory on Wednesday assured, at the very least, more baseball, and for that, we are eternally grateful.

This year was far too unpredictable and unprecedented for there to have been a sweep in the World Series.
