title-clinching victory over the Yankees in Game 5.<\/p>\n<p>(Robert Gauthier \/ Los Angeles Times)<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<p>\u201cEven in the postseason,\u201d Roberts added, \u201cI don\u2019t think anyone had us picked.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But unlike past Dodgers teams that flamed out in the playoffs, this year\u2019s group never deterred, maintaining belief through clubhouse meetings and player-only bus rides and cross-country flights in which even their families weren\u2019t allowed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe got together and said, \u2018Hey guys, just us. No family, no kids, nothing,\u2019\u201d third baseman Max Muncy said. \u201cWe\u2019re doing this together, we\u2019re grinding together. until that last out of the World Series.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After rallying against the Padres, then dispatching <a class=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/sports\/dodgers\/story\/2024-10-20\/dodgers-defeat-mets-nlcs-game-6-world-series\" data-autoplayable-video=\"true\">the New York Mets in six games<\/a> to win the pennant, that moment finally arrived Wednesday night, in what became the biggest come-from-behind win ever mounted by a club trying to close out a World Series.<\/p>\n<p>Four batters into the bottom of the first, the Yankees had a 3-0 lead on home runs from Aaron Judge and Jazz Chisholm off starter Jack Flaherty. By the end of the third, Flaherty was out of the game and New York had stretched the score to 5-0. With the Dodgers still searching for a hit off Yankees ace Gerrit Cole, it seemed certain the series would head back to Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>Then, suddenly, the Yankees\u2019 defense capitulated.<\/p>\n<p>And once they cracked the door open, the Dodgers came bursting through it.<\/p>\n<p>After a leadoff single from Kik\u00e9 Hern\u00e1ndez, Judge flat-out dropped a line drive off the bat of <a class=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/sports\/dodgers\/story\/2024-10-01\/dodgers-tommy-edman-utility-man-versatility-trade-deadline\">Tommy Edman<\/a>. He couldn\u2019t throw to second in time to get Hern\u00e1ndez, either, after he made a quick turn and aggressive slide into the bag.<\/p>\n<p>Shortstop Anthony Volpe erred next, spiking a throw to third on a ground ball from Will Smith to load the bases with no outs.<\/p>\n<p>Cole then made the most puzzling of miscues. After striking out Gavin Lux and Ohtani in consecutive at-bats, he got Betts to hit a ground ball to first baseman Anthony Rizzo \u2014 only to fail to cover the bag for what would have been an inning-ending out.<\/p>\n<p>Hern\u00e1ndez scored. Everyone else was safe. And the Dodgers\u2019 comeback was just beginning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just know I hit it, and I had to run,\u201d Betts said. \u201cAnd I\u2019m glad Cole didn\u2019t cover first.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Two batters later, the score was tied at 5-5. Freeman knuckled a two-run single to center. Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez blasted a two-run double over Judge\u2019s head in the gap.<\/p>\n<div class=\"enhancement\" data-click=\"enhancement\" data-align-center-expanded=\"\">\n<div

there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m glad he left me in,\u201d Treinen said. \u201cFor him to trust me in that situation, it\u2019s a privilege I don\u2019t take for granted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Treinen rewarded the choice as well, getting a first-pitch fly ball from Stanton \u2014 who was supposed to be his last batter \u2014 before a sweeping, swinging strikeout of Rizzo to end the inning.<\/p>\n<p>That left the ninth for Buehler, who came trotting on just two days removed from a winning five-inning start in Game 3.<\/p>\n<p>It was Buehler\u2019s first career postseason relief appearance. And, as an impending free agent, potentially his final outing with the team. But, after telling general manager Brandon Gomes on the bus ride to the ballpark he felt good enough to pitch if, for some reason it was needed, an unforeseeable confluence of events collided to make it an unexpected reality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just felt that at that point in time,\u201d Roberts said of summoning Buehler, \u201cI was going to be all in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sixteen pitches later, Buehler was spreading his arms out wide as Alex Verdugo whiffed at a curveball for the third, final, title-clinching out.<\/p>\n<p>A championship had been won. A golden era of the franchise had been cemented.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom the time I got to the big leagues, so 2018 to now, I don\u2019t think you would want to be any other organization than us,\u201d Buehler said. \u201cThere\u2019s nowhere else I\u2019d rather be.
