President Donald Trump extended an official invitation to the Los Angeles Dodgers, celebrating their thrilling victory in the World Series, which concluded in a gripping seventh game against the Toronto Blue Jays. This marks the Dodgers’ second consecutive championship, a testament to their prowess on the field.
The 2025 World Series finale was nothing short of a spectacle, with the Dodgers clinching a 5-4 victory in a dramatic turnaround. Facing the threat of elimination with just two outs remaining, Miguel Rojas delivered a game-tying home run that electrified the crowd. The tension continued into the 11th inning when Will Smith sealed their victory with a decisive homer.
President Trump took to social media to express his admiration for the Dodgers’ achievement. “Congratulations to the L.A. Dodgers, a game won by incredible CHAMPIONS!!!” he exclaimed on Truth Social. He praised the team’s resilience, noting that “a lesser group of men” could not have achieved such a feat, particularly referencing the pivotal moments in both games six and seven. Trump also acknowledged the efforts of the team’s ownership, commending their leadership and strategy.
In his congratulatory message, the President concluded with a bold, all-caps assurance of his invitation to the White House, underscoring the significance of their victory and the honor it brings.
“Congratulations to the L.A. Dodgers, a game won by incredible CHAMPIONS!!!” he wrote on Truth Social. “A lesser group of men would never have been able to win that game, or game 6, for that matter. So many stars made it all happen. Also, congratulations to ownership. What a great job they have done.”
The president ended his message with an all-caps promise:
” SEE YOU ALL AT THE WHITE HOUSE!!!”
It will be the second time since Trump took office that the Dodgers will come to Washington. They visited the White House earlier this year to celebrate winning the 2024 World Series.
Trump is a sports fan, and since assuming the presidency in January has attended a number of high-profile events. Since returning to the White House, Trump attended the Super Bowl in New Orleans and the Daytona 500 in Florida, where his motorcade drove a portion of the track. While president-elect he went to a UFC fight in New York.
What happened in game 7 of the World Series?
In a World Series for the ages that went back and forth again and again, Will Smith delivered the biggest swing of all for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Smith connected in the 11th for the first extra-inning homer in a winner-take-all title game, and Miguel Rojas became the first player to hit a tying home run in the ninth inning of a Game 7. On a roller-coaster night of see-sawing emotions, the Dodgers outlasted the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 Saturday to become the first repeat champion in a quarter century.
“You dream of those moments,” Smith said after the 4-hour, 7-minute thriller. “I’ll remember that for forever.”
In the type of dramatic Game 7 that kids conjure in backyards, the Blue Jays led 3-0 on Bo Bichette’s third-inning homer off Shohei Ohtani and 4-2 before Max Muncy’s eighth-inning solo homer off star rookie Trey Yesavage.
Toronto was two outs from its first championship since 1993 when Rojas, inserted into the slumping Dodgers lineup in Game 6 to provide some energy, homered on a full-count slider from Jeff Hoffman and stunned the Rogers Centre crowd of 44,713.
“I’ve cost everybody in here a World Series ring,” Hoffman said.
