"Curse of the Bambino" in baseball #baseball #curseofthebambino #baberuth #bostonredsox #redsoxcurse One mysterious fact about sports is the so-called "Curse of the Bambino" in baseball. This curse was believed to be the reason for the Boston Red Sox's long championship drought, which lasted 86 years from 1918 to 2004. According to legend, the curse began after the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth, one of the greatest baseball players, to the New York Yankees in 1919. Following this sale, the Yankees went on to become one of the most successful franchises in sports history, while the Red Sox experienced a long period of misfortune and near-misses in their quest for another World Series title. The curse was famously "broken" when the Red Sox won the World Series in 2004. #youtube #video #content #vlog #blogger #influencer #subscribe #like #comment #share #follow #trending #viral #popular #entertainment #music #tutorial #howto #diy #beauty #fashion #fitness #health #lifestyle #travel #adventure #food #cooking #recipe #gaming #gamer #tech #technology #review #unboxing #challenge #funny #comedy #memes #prank #movie #film #animation #shortfilm #documentary #education #learning #science #nature #wildlife #art #drawing #painting #photography #photo #videoediting #filmmaking #director #actor #actress #singer #songwriter #dance #dancer #live #livestream #broadcast #podcast #interview #talkshow #news #journalism #sports #football #soccer #basketball #baseball #tennis #running #marathon #cycling #mountainbiking #hiking #climbing #fishing #hunting #camping #survival #motivation #inspiration #meditation #yoga #spirituality #mindfulness #selfcare #productivity #entrepreneur #business #startup #money #finance #investing #realestate #marketing #curseofthebambino #baberuth #bostonredsox #redsoxcurse #baseballlegend #baseballhistory #yankeestakeover #greatbambino #worldseries #sportsmyth #legendarycurse #bostonhistory #mlbhistory #redsoxlegend #baseballcurse #86yearcurse #championshipdrought #sportscurse #famouscurses #mysteriousevents #sportsmystery #redsoxvsnyyankees #yankeesdynasty #baseballrivalry #cursedteam #historicsale #bambinocurse #famousbaseballstories #greatestcurse #epiccomeback #redsoxvictory #2004worldseries #longwait #breakingthecurse #redsoxchampions #cursebreaker #baseballsuperstition #sportshistory #cursedfranchise #historicbaseball #redsoxtriumph #legendarybaseball #epicbaseball #sportslegend #baseballicon #redsoxwin #sportsdrought #baseballfolklore #sportshistoryfact #nyyankees #bostonvsnewyork #longestcurse #baseballhero #sportslegendary #mlbchampions #bostonchampions #historicwin #epicmoment #legendarymoment #historiccurse #redsoxstruggle #sportingcurse #greatestbaseballcurse #bostonsports #baseballchampionship #mlblegend #cursedhistory #sportstale #mlbchampionship #curseofbabe #redsoxtriumphs #mlbstories #epicsports #2004comeback #sportscurses #redsox2004 #redsoxhistory #newyorkyankees #bostonbaseball #historicrivalry #baberuthsale #redsoxlegendary #bostonsportslegend #greatestsportscurse #baseballfables #redsoxfans #mlbmyth #baseballtragedy #sportssuperstition #legendaryrivalry #bambinolegend #bostonvsnewyorkrivalry #sportsstories #epicbaseballmoments

Dodgers Win First World Series Title in 32 years

No dogpile, no champagne and a mask on nearly every face — the Los Angeles Dodgers celebrated their first World Series title since 1988 in a manner no one could have imagined prior to the coronavirus pandemic.

They started the party without Justin Turner, too, after their red-headed star received a positive COVID-19 test in the middle of their clinching victory.

Turner was removed from Los Angeles’ 3-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 6 on Tuesday night after registering Major League Baseball’s first positive test in 59 days and wasn’t initially on the field as the Dodgers enjoyed the spoils of a title earned during a most unusual season.

The 35-year-old Turner has been a staple in the Dodgers’ lineup for seven of their eight consecutive NL West titles. A late-blooming slugger who helped reshape the game by succeeding with an upper-cut swing, Turner is LA’s career leader with 12 postseason home runs, including a pair in this Series, in which he hit .364 and also played stellar defense.

“It’s gut-wrenching,” World Series MVP Corey Seager said. “If I could switch places with him right now, I would. That’s just not right.”

Commissioner Rob Manfred confirmed Turner’s positive test moments after presenting the World Series trophy to Los Angeles — a jarring reminder of all that’s been different in this season where the perennially favored Dodgers finally broke through.

Mookie Betts, who came to the Dodgers to make a World Series difference, had a mad dash to home plate in the sixth inning to put Los Angeles over the top.

“I just came to be a part of it. I’m just happy I could contribute,” Betts said

The end of a frustrating championship drought for LA — and perhaps just the start for Betts and the Dodgers, whose seventh World Series title was their sixth since leaving Brooklyn to the West Coast in 1958.

“I had a crazy feeling that came to fruition,” Roberts said. “It’s just a special group of players, organization, all that we’ve kind of overcome.”

Betts bolted from third for the go-ahead run on Seager’s infield grounder, then led off the eighth with a punctuating homer.

“It was absolutely phenomenal. This team was incredible,” said Seager, also the NLCS MVP who had franchise records with his eight homers and 20 RBIs this postseason. “We never stopped. We were ready to go as soon as the bell was called. Once it did, we kept rolling. You can’t say enough about what we did this season.”

Kershaw was warming in the bullpen when Julio Urías struck out Willy Adames to end it and ran alongside teammates to celebrate in the infield, later joined by family who had been in the bubble with them in North Texas.

Players were handed face masks as they gathered, although many of their embraces came mask-free even after Turner’s positive test.

The Dodgers had played 5,014 regular season games and were in their 114th postseason game since Orel Hershiser struck out Oakland’s Tony Phillips for the final out of the World Series in 1988, the same year Kershaw — the three-time NL Cy Young Award winner who won Games 1 and 5 of this Series — was born in nearby Dallas.

About 2½ weeks after the Lakers won the NBA title while finishing their season in the NBA bubble in Orlando, Florida, the Dodgers gave Los Angeles another championship in this year when the  coronavirus pandemic delayed, shortened and moved around sports seasons.

The MLB season didn’t start until late July and was abbreviated to 60 games for the shortest regular season since 1878. And the expanded postseason, with 16 teams making it instead of 10, almost went the full distance.

Both League Championship Series went to seven games, with Los Angeles beating Atlanta in the National League, and Tampa Bay needing all seven games in the American League after blowing a 3-0 series lead against Houston.

Betts made sure the Dodgers didn’t need another game.

Chants of “M-V-P!, M-V-P!” broke out when he hit his double in the sixth off reliever Nick Anderson. Snell, the 2018 AL Cy Young Award winner had already struck out Betts twice, plus the Dodgers leadoff hitter had a .531 OPS against lefties this season, compared to 1.061 versus right-handers.

Those chants got even louder — even with the a limited crowd of 11,437 — when Betts went deep on an 0-2 pitch by hard-throwing right-hander Pete Fairbanks.

There were plenty of fans in Dodgers blue at the new $1.2 billion home of the Texas Rangers, the stadium with the retractable roof where they played 16 games over three weeks. And the roof was closed for the final one, with misty conditions and a game-time temperature of 39 degrees outside.

The Dodgers, who had a majors-best 43-17 record in the regular season, swept San Diego in three games during their NL Division Series there before the NLCS.

Los Angeles was home team for the final game of the season, like in the 2017 World Series when the Houston Astros won Game 7 at Dodger Stadium, and two years ago against the Red Sox.

Congrats to the Los Angeles Dodgers on their well-deserved Championship Win.
