2018 WORLD SERIES
October 23, 2018  | By David Bianculli

Fox, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Boston Red Sox face each other in this year’s World Series, and it’s a storied legacy. The last time these two franchises met for the World Series, the Dodgers not only were playing in Brooklyn, but weren’t even the Dodgers yet. They were the Brooklyn Robins, and faced the Boston Red Sox in a five-game contest in 1916. The Red Sox won – in part to their Game 2 winning pitcher, who pitched a 14-inning victory. His name? Babe Ruth. More than a century later, Ruth won’t be playing. But the game will be televised.
