The Dodgers won the World Series for the first time in 32 years. The final score was 3-1. The last time the Dodgers won a World Series was against the New York Mets in 1988.

“I know you want to celebrate like everybody else, but let’s do it properly, let’s do it the way the Dodgers did, with pride in themselves and pride in our great city,” Scully said in the video. “Let’s show the rest of the country that we know how to celebrate the proper way.”
