Ohtani and the LA Dodgers celebrate World Series victory with parade and stadium celebration

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers are celebrating their eighth World Series championship with a downtown parade and a stadium gathering featuring Shohei Ohtani and other star players. Seven double-decker buses filled with players, their families and the coaching staff traveled a 45-minute route. Ohtani was holding his dog, Decoy. Some players were smoking cigars and drinking beer on the sun-splashed day. The Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees in five games, clinching the title with a 7-6 victory in the Bronx on Wednesday. The celebration continues at Dodger Stadium, where players will address the crowd.
