“Congratulations to the L.A. Dodgers, a game won by incredible CHAMPIONS!!!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.<\/p>\n
WASHINGTON \u2014 President Donald Trump has formally invited the Los Angeles Dodgers to the White House after the team won their second consecutive championship Saturday, knocking out the Blue Jays in a nail-biter seventh game of the World Series.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The 2025 World Series ended 4-5, in a dramatic turnaround finish. The Dodgers were down to their final two outs before Miguel Rojas smashed a home run, tying the game. The winning run was Will Smith’s homer ending the game in the 11th inning.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In a post on social media, Trump congratulated the team. <\/a><\/p>\n “Congratulations to the L.A. Dodgers, a game won by incredible CHAMPIONS!!!” he wrote on Truth Social. “A lesser group of men would never have been able to win that game, or game 6, for that matter. So many stars made it all happen. Also, congratulations to ownership. What a great job they have done.”<\/p>\n The president ended his message with an all-caps promise:<\/p>\n ” SEE YOU ALL AT THE WHITE HOUSE!!!”\u00a0<\/p>\n It will be the second time since Trump took office that the Dodgers will come to Washington. They visited the White House earlier this year to celebrate winning the 2024 World Series.\u00a0<\/p>\n Trump is a sports fan, and since assuming the presidency in January has attended a number of high-profile events. Since returning to the White House, Trump attended the Super Bowl in New Orleans<\/a> and the Daytona 500<\/a> in Florida, where his motorcade drove a portion of the track. While president-elect he went to a UFC fight in New York<\/a>.<\/p>\n
In a World Series for the ages that went back and forth again and again, Will Smith delivered the biggest swing of all for the Los Angeles Dodgers.<\/p>\n Smith connected in the 11th for the first extra-inning homer in a winner-take-all title game, and Miguel Rojas became the first player to hit a tying home run in the ninth inning of a Game 7. On a roller-coaster night of see-sawing emotions, the Dodgers outlasted the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 Saturday to become the first repeat champion in a quarter century.<\/p>\n \u201cYou dream of those moments,” Smith said after the 4-hour, 7-minute thriller. “I\u2019ll remember that for forever.\u201d<\/p>\n
