How would you describe the Los Angeles Dodgers’ title-clinching 7-6 comeback (after trailing 5-0 in the first three innings) over the New York Yankees in Game 5 of the World Series?

Here are some suggestions. Mix and match at your own discretion.

Wild. Crackpot. Crazy. Bananas. Incredible. Electrifying. Baffling. Shocking. Awesome. Memorable. Magical. Distressing. Iconic. Amazing. Remarkable. Awesome. Epic. Outrageous. Exciting. Exciting. Incredible. Earring. Demure (OK, definitely not demure, just make sure you stick with it).

There were heroes for the Dodgers (Freddie Freeman once again, Mookie Betts, Teoscar Hernández, basically the entire Los Angeles pitching staff) and goats for a Yankees team that fell apart defensively, making almost every mistake possible, including the interference from the receiver and an obstacle. !

The five unearned runs allowed by the Yankees tonight are the most in any World Series decider.

We’ll break down each key moment of the game in a moment. But first, these were some of the adjectives (and reactions) that social media offered as the Dodgers made a comeback for good:

OptaSTATS @OptaSTATS

He @Dodgers They are the first team in MLB postseason history to fall behind by more than 5 runs, erase that deficit, fall behind again, and still win the game.
They did it to win the World Series title.

The fifth game took place in four very different chapters.

The first was New York’s offensive explosion in the first three innings, highlighted by Aaron Judge’s two-run homer in the bottom of the first, Jazz Chisholm’s solo shot one batter later and Giancarlo Stanton’s homer in the third.

The second inning was a wild top of the fifth for the Dodgers.

New York’s horrible fielding, highlighted by Judge’s surprising fall in center field, a throwing error by Anthony Volpe and Gerrit Cole’s failure to cover first base on what should have been an inning-ending groundout, He opened the door to a big frame, and the Dodgers pounced on him. .

The red-hot Freddie Freeman drove in two with a single, followed by a two-run double from Teoscar Hernández:

The third chapter was a more moderate version of the second.

After Giancarlo Stanton gave the Yankees the lead in the bottom of the sixth with a sacrifice fly, the Dodgers loaded the bases twice in the top of the eighth inning. On both occasions, sacrifice flies, first by Gavin Lux and then by Betts after Shohei Ohtani reached base on catcher’s interference, gave the Dodgers their first lead of the game.

And then there was the fourth and final chapter, and it was the most disappointing. With six outs remaining, the Yankees were unable to muster a run, as the Dodgers bullpen, which was called upon to handle 7.2 innings in this game, silenced the same offense that hit starter Jack Flaherty.

The bullpen had to dig so deep that closer Blake Treinen pitched 2.1 innings, while Game 3 starter Walker Buehler was called on for the save.

That’s how wonderfully strange this game was, at least from the perspective of Los Angeles. In New York, the choice of adjectives will definitely be more negative. We will leave them to your own imagination.
