Bobby and Alex gather to react to a World Series bookended with two classic games that the Dodgers ultimately dominated over the Yankees. They discuss the shocking Freddie Freeman performance, the resilience of a very injured Dodgers pitching staff, the buttons that Dave Roberts pressed to navigate all 27 outs each time they took the field, an underwhelming Yankees showing, the outlook for Los Angeles heading forward, and what the league might try to learn from their dominant season.
