Follow the latest news and live updates as the Los Angeles Dodgers take on the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 1 of the 2025 World Series championship.

The Dodgers have settled into a fairly regular lineup, especially with no more opposing left-handed starters to face. Their lineup in Game 1 of the World Series against the Blue Jays on Friday night at Rogers Centre in Toronto features the same starting nine players for a fifth straight game.

The offensive fireworks have been led by Vladimir Guerrero Jr, who has been outstanding this postseason. He is hitting .442 with 11 hits in 11 playoff games. The All-Star slugger has gone yard four times, driven in nine runs, and scored 11. The only games he has been held without a hit were Games 1 and 2 (both losses) against the Mariners.

Why these three players will hear it more than most from the Dodgers' and Blue Jays' fanbases at the Fall Classic

Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani is praised by Deion Sanders, a pitcher is linked to a trade, and the Dodgers are considered heavy World Series favorites by one analyst.

Mookie Betts and Shohei Ohtani have +145 odds to combine for 5+ total bases in Game 1, +230 for 6+ bases, and +360 for 7+. There are also odds available for players such as Vladimir Guerrero Jr., George Springer, Freddie Freeman, and others.
