For the second straight season, baseball's world championship will come down to a Game 7. The series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Houston Astros has been an epic one, and the Dodgers forced a Game 7 with a 3–1 victory in Game 6. Los Angeles, who had baseball's best record during the 2017 season, seeks its seventh World Series title and first since 1988, while the Astros look to break through with their first–ever championship.
