The Los Angeles Dodgers closed out an unprecedented World Series with a 3-1 victory against the Tampa Bay Rays in Arlington, Texas, on Tuesday.

The Dodgers and the Rays faced off during the coronavirus pandemic, making it a Fall Classic the likes of which we have never seen.

A limited number of fans were allowed to attend, and it was the first time the best-of-seven series was played on a neutral site -- the newly opened Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas.

This was the 20th World Series appearance for the Dodgers, who competed for the title in three of the last four years. The team won six times, but not since 1988.

It was just the second time the Rays made it to the World Series, which they won in 2008.
