Fans across Los Angeles took to the streets to celebrate after the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 to win their second consecutive World Series title on Saturday night.
The Dodgers became the first team in a quarter century to win back-to-back World Series titles. Yoshinobu Yamamoto was named the 2025 World Series Most Valuable Player.
A large group of people gathered at the intersection of Van Nuys Boulevard and Haddon Boulevard in Pacoima, where some drivers were seen doing street stunts and cake and fireworks were shot into the sky.
The Los Angeles Police Department issued a citywide tactical alert in preparation for any public response to Game 7. The alert was issued just before 6 p.m. and will continue throughout the night.
