""I can't talk about ruining anything today, guys," Roberts began, a reference to his battle cry of sorts after the Dodgers swept the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Championship Series. "I'm sorry to disappoint. But we talked last year about running it back, and before I get to that, a word stuck out to me after we won Game 7. The word, mirror."
""The reason I bring this word up is because every time we take the field, our players look in the mirror and what we see is you guys. We see toughness, we see passion, we see perseverance. I'll tell you right now, this group of guys was never going to be denied to bring this city another championship. And I hope every single day, when you guys look in the mirror, as you unpack this season,"
"you look back at each one of these guys and see what they sacrificed for each other and most importantly, for you guys. The last thing I'll say, I talked to a good friend of mine yesterday on the plane, and gave me the OK to use this phrase. Pat Riley, what's better than two? Three! Three-peat. Three-peat. Let's go!"
Thousands of fans attended the Dodgers' 2025 World Series celebration at Dodger Stadium and the parade. DJ Mustard performed and Ice Cube made a surprise appearance.
