Yankees-Dodgers iconic moments: Bombers win back-to-back World Series with help of controversial play



The New York Yankees had a rough start defending their 1977 World Series title in 1978, but they made an incredible comeback after July 19, winning 44 out of 60 games. They ended up in a tie with the Boston Red Sox, forcing a Game 163 for the division crown. The Yankees went on to win the ALCS against the Kansas City Royals and faced off against the Los Angeles Dodgers in a rematch of the previous year’s World Series. The Yankees ultimately won the series in six games, with Bucky Dent being named the World Series MVP. The victory marked the start of a long title drought for the Yankees, while the Dodgers continued to struggle in the World Series until getting their revenge in 1981.
