The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees by a score of 4-2 to take Game 2 of the World Series Saturday night at Dodger Stadium. Despite the Dodgers being in control most of the game, New York threatened a late comeback in the ninth inning but would strand the bases loaded. Still reeling from Friday’s historic Game 1 win, the Dodgers offense brought the same juice early on Saturday. Tommy Edman, the National League Championship Series (NLCS) MVP, blasted a solo home run in the bottom of the second inning to give Los Angeles a 1-0 lead. The Yankees responded in the next half inning with a Juan Soto solo home run to tie the game up. The game did not remain tied for much longer.
The Los Angeles Lakers, one of sports’ most prestigious franchises, have seen their share of historic moments, including 17 championships. But on Tuesday night in Los Angeles, the team produced a first in NBA history when Lakers star LeBron James and his son Bronny became the first father-son duo to appear together in an NBA game.
