Read below for the top five moments of Game 7.

It looked pretty bleak for a while. Clayton Kershaw was stuck watching the Blue Jays try to wrap up a victory against the Dodgers, which would have ended their 32-year World Series title drought. Instead, Max Muncy, Miguel Rojas and Will Smith turned the game around in a hurry.

Kershaw got to end his career with a third championship ring as his next stop is Cooperstown and enshrinement into the Baseball Hall of Fame. He addressed his teammates in the locker room right before the champagne began to spray.

"It’s an absolute honor to be in this clubhouse with you guys. I love every single one of you," he said. "I can’t imagine a better way to go out than to pop bottles with this group of guys. We’re back-to-back champs!"

The Rogers Centre was buzzing early in the game. Blue Jays fans were waiting for something amazing to happen and they got it. Bo Bichette, who was battling a knee injury, clobbered a three-run home run in the third inning to give the Blue Jays the lead.

Bichette was 2-for-4 before manager John Schneider pinch-ran for him later in the game.

DODGERS CAPTURE BACK-TO-BACK WORLD SERIES TITLES AFTER EPIC GAME 7 VICTORY OVER BLUE JAYS

Blue Jays third baseman Ernie Clement had the bases loaded and a chance to establish himself next to Joe Carter in the lore of the organization. Clement drove a pitch deep to left-center field.

Enrique Hernandez was tracking the ball but would have needed to make an over-the-head catch to end the inning. Instead, center fielder Andy Pages came over and caught the ball over Hernandez. Pages steamrolled Hernandez to make the grab, it kept Los Angeles’ hope alive.

The Dodgers called on Yamamoto to help the team out of a jam in the bottom of the ninth inning – a night after he pitched six innings in the Dodgers’ Game 6 win.

Yamamoto entered the game for Blake Snell and was able to end the bases-loaded threat. He then shut down Toronto in the 10th and 11th innings to seal the deal. He won three games in the World Series and was named the World Series MVP.

It was a moment that will be remembered in Dodgers’ history for a long time. Smith hit the go-ahead home run in the top of the 11th inning off Blue Jays pitcher Shane Bieber to give Los Angeles the 5-4 lead. 

He was the first MLB player in history to homer in extra innings of a World Series in Game 7, according to Opta Stats.

It was Los Angeles’ first lead in the game and the magical moment helped give the Dodgers the win.

Glen Powell suffers embarrassing wardrobe malfunction during stunt on 'The Running Man' movie set

Glen Powell got candid about an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction on set of his latest movie.

While participating in an episode of Entertainment Tonight's "Spilling the E-Tea," the 37-year-old actor shared how shocked he was when he realized one of his stunts on his latest film, "The Running Man," left him a little more exposed than he expected.

He detailed a stunt which involved him rappelling down the side of a building while seemingly naked, explaining he was wearing a towel with "a little, like, a pouch underneath," which he referred to as "a marble sack."

"So I'm wearing a pouch under, and then I'm wearing a towel around it," he explained. "But then you're rappelling down a building. And, you know, when you're going down the building and you see a window, you don't realize there's people in there, like, lighting and doing electric."

GLEN POWELL HAS SURPRISING REASON WHY HE REFUSES TO PLAY JAMES BOND

His co-star in the film, Josh Brolin, couldn't help but poke fun at him, pointing out the crew on the other side of the window was "watching [him] come down frontally," and then spread his legs to mimic Powell's positioning in the scene.

"The Running Man" stars Powell as a father desperate to get rich quick in order to treat his sick daughter. In order to get the money, he participates in a reality show in which a contestant must survive 30 days while professional assassins hunt him down.

Powell discussed the scene during an interview with Entertainment Weekly, saying he loved the idea of the scene because he "found it very, very funny, and something that I've never seen in a movie before." He admits, however, that when it came time to film, he "regretted agreeing to it."

"Because I agreed to that scene in the summertime, and we shot that scene in February in Bulgaria on a rooftop," he said. "So being in a towel in front of a crew is one thing, but being in a towel in February in frigid Bulgaria, it's a sight."

The actor had his big break in the industry in 2022, when he starred alongside Tom Cruise in "Top Gun: Maverick." The following year, he starred in both "Hit Man" and "Anyone But You," the former earning him a Golden Globe nomination.

After starring in "Anyone But You" in 2023, rumors started swirling about a romantic connection between him and his co-star in the film, Sydney Sweeney, despite the fact that Sweeney was engaged at the time. They intensified again when Sweeney broke off her engagement and attended Powell's sister's wedding in March.

"The press did it themselves," Sweeney told Variety in October about their rumored relationship. "There was no leaning in, per se."

"The tabloids and journalists just created it and kept going," she added. "Even if we were just standing next to each other, it was, ‘They’re standing two inches apart!’"
