Reggie Jackson, the legendary “Mr. October,” isn’t holding back as the Yankees and Dodgers square off once again in the World Series. Reflecting on his iconic battles against the Dodgers, Jackson confessed his deep admiration for the Los Angeles team, saying, “I always wanted to play for the Dodgers… they had a great, great team.” But make no mistake—his heart belongs to New York.
“But I’m a Yankee, bro,” Jackson declared. “I’ve got NY on my hat. Who the heck do you think I’m going to root for?” With the Yankees and Dodgers facing off for the 12th time in World Series history, Jackson’s loyalty to the pinstripes is unshakable. Despite praising the Dodgers’ talent, he made it clear: “I’ve got to pull for the Yankees.”
As the Yankees enter this Fall Classic as slight underdogs, Jackson’s fiery allegiance has set the stage for what could be an unforgettable clash between two of baseball’s titans. Will the pinstripes prevail once again, or is L.A. ready to take the crown?
