With a mammoth Grand Slam by Freddie Freeman in the tenth inning, the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees 6 to 3 on Friday in Game 1 of the Major League Baseball World Series.
The first final between these two iconic franchises since 1981 was a thriller in which the Yankees took the lead in the top of the 10th inning on a Jazz Chisholm Jr. homer.
But the Dodgers didn't throw in the towel in front of their 52,000 fans and, after filling the bases, Freeman connected on a four-run home run to give the home side the first win of this best-of-seven-game series.
