Happy Friday! It’s October 25th, and an action-packed weekend of sports awaits us. If you’re in Los Angeles, get ready for a day full of excitement. Here’s what you need to know!
Los Angeles is the place to be
Today is jam-packed in LA with traffic and sports. The city is hosting Game 1 of the World Series, the Phoenix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers (NBA - National Basketball Association), and Rutgers takes on USC.
World Series Game One: Yankees vs. Dodgers
Next is Game 1 of the World Series at Dodger Stadium, featuring the New York Yankees vs. the Los Angeles Dodgers. This matchup is particularly thrilling, with five past MVPs—Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, Aaron Judge, and Giancarlo Stanton—potentially taking the field. If all five appear, that would be the most former MVPs to play in a World Series.
For the record, this is the fifth consecutive World Series with a player named Will Smith! Don't forget Taco Bell's “Steal a Base, Steal a Taco” promotion. If a player steals a base during the Series, fans score free tacos!
