Corey Seager Named World Series MVP After Dodgers Win First Title Since 1988

It finally happened for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

After failing to convert championship appearances in 2017 and 2018 to a World Series title, the Dodgers on Tuesday won Game 6 against the Tampa Bay Rays to get it done for the first time since 1988.

And it was all made possible with the help of Corey Seager, who raked for L.A. all postseason and ultimately earned the World Series MVP.
