Which team did the Dodgers beat in the 2025 World Series?

The story behind the answer

The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Toronto Blue Jays in the 2025 World Series.

Los Angeles won the best-of-seven championship series four games to three, completing a dramatic title defense. The Dodgers prevailed in Game 7 at Rogers Centre in Toronto, winning 5–4 in 11 innings. Will Smith’s extra-inning home run supplied the decisive run in the finale.

The victory gave the Dodgers consecutive World Series championships, following their 2024 title. It also made the 2025 series a notable meeting between a National League champion from Los Angeles and an American League champion from Toronto. The Blue Jays were the Dodgers’ opponent, not the Philadelphia Phillies, Milwaukee Brewers, or New York Yankees.

The result can be confused with earlier Dodgers championships because the franchise has won titles in both Brooklyn and Los Angeles. The 2025 championship was the Dodgers’ ninth overall and their eighth since relocating to Los Angeles in 1958. It set up the club’s 2026 pursuit of a third straight title.
