How to Watch Game 1: Dodgers at Blue Jays: Stream MLB World Series, TV Channel

The Dodgers look well on their way to becoming the first repeat champion in a quarter century with how easy they’re making the 2025 playoffs look. They are 9-1 coming into this World Series against Toronto, and swept the best team in the regular season, beating the Milwaukee Brewers in the NLCS. It can’t be spoken of enough with how the Dodgers clinched the pennant against the Brewers in Game 4, because it was likely the best individual performance in the pastime’s history.

That of course is the performance of the unicorn himself, Shohei Ohtani. The multi-hyphenate and best player in the world Ohtani, hit three homers including a leadoff homer in 5-1 victory. If that wasn’t enough, Ohtani was also the starting pitcher where he went six innings while only allowing two hits and striking out 10 batters. Based on that performance alone, Ohtani rightfully so won the NLCS MVP. We are living in the perfect baseball timeline where we are fortunate to see one of the greatest players in any sport master their craft.

The Dodgers plan to stick with their NLCS rotation for the World Series, which would put Ohtani on track to pitch again in Game 4. Tonight, the Dodgers will start Blake Snell. The lefty has been phenomenal this postseason going 3-0 with a 0.86 ERA. Snell last pitched in Game 1 of the NLCS where LA won the tightest game of the series in a 2-1 win. That was all thanks to Snell who went eight scoreless innings while only giving up one hit while striking out 10. This may be the most intimidating lineup this World Series has to offer, but if the Dodgers repeat this year it will be because of their starting rotation.

The Dodgers might be coming off as more well rested in this series, but Toronto is coming off a thrilling Game 7 victory over the Seattle Mariners who have still yet to make their first World Series appearance. George Springer made sure it stayed that way in a 4-3 victory to punch their ticket to this game. The Blue Jays were having trouble scoring much of the game, and things looked bleak for Toronto after Cal Raleigh hit a solo shot in the fifth to go up 3-1. But all the Blue Jays needed was one swing of the bat to reverse their fortunes. Springer hit a three-run dinger in the seventh in what is now likely the second most famous home run in franchise history in an instant classic ALCS.

Toronto may have history on their side in this World Series. Since the championship league series expanded to a best-of-seven series in 1985, there have been four other instances where on team has swept and the other team has gone seven games. The team that swept in the league championship is 0-4 in the World Series with just a 2-16 record. The most recent instance of this was in 2012 when the Detroit Tigers swept the Yankees in the ALCS, and the Giants beat the St. Louis Cardinals 4-3. The Giants went on to win the World Series 4-0. Toronto will be hoping all the time off for LA is a disadvantage when they start Trey Yesavage for the home opener tonight. The righty is 2-1 this postseason with a 4.20 ERA. He last pitched in Game 6 on Sunday against the Mariners, where the Blue Jays tied the series after 5.2 innings from Yesavage where he only gave up two runs. Buckle up for another great pitcher’s duel in Game 1 of the 2025 Fall Classic.
