The Dodgers stand tall and win back-to-back titles! [CHEERS] CBS'sAndres Gutierrez is in Los Angeles with all the highlights. Andres, good evening. Good evening, Jericka. There is so much excitement in this city. Dodgers fans are ready to celebrate with a parade that's happening tomorrow after a comeback thriller in extra innings. Toronto was just two outs away from its first title since 1993. Up by a run in the ninth when Miguel Rojas shocked Toronto and Canadians by tying things up with a solo homer, sending the teams to extra innings. Neither team scored in the 10th. Then, top of the 11, Dodgers catcher Will Smith blasted a solo home run to lead 5-4. LA fought off a rally from the Blue Jays in the bottom of the inning to repeat as World Series champions. Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who started game 6, delivered a gutsy performance on zero days rest, making him the World Series MVP. The cheering heard all the way in Japan. Newspapers rushed special editions of the victory. Across Canada, heartbreak after a crushing defeat. Their team went from worst to first in a single season. It's so upsetting, but-- But we still love the Blue Jays.

For the Dodgers' reasons to celebrate, they have the highest payroll in baseball, perhaps the world's best player, Shohei Ohtani. And now they're the first back-to-back champions in 25 years. And now at tomorrow's parade, the team will be traveling on double decker buses, greeting fans through the streets of downtown LA. The city is expecting that more than 200,000 fans will come out and celebrate. Jericka?
