Game 3 will go down as the marathon game at the 2025 World Series, with Freddie Freeman’s walkoff homer in the 18th inning giving the L.A. Dodgers a 6-5 victory and 2-1 edge on the Toronto Blue Jays.
Six hours 39 minutes after the first pitch was thrown in the late afternoon at a sunny Dodger Stadium, Freeman ended it just before midnight local time with a drive to straightaway centre field off Brendon Little.
It was the longest World Series game in seven years and the first time in Fall Classic history that each team had at least 15 hits.
Here are some scenes from the game.
