It all comes down to this.
The New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers are squaring off in a heavyweight World Series between two storied MLB franchises.
Both teams are loaded with All-Stars and household names. The Yankees boast Aaron Judge, Juan Soto and Gerrit Cole, while the Dodgers bring Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman to the table.
While the stars will absorb the spotlight, players further down in the lineup or deeper in the rotation could swing the series.
