In a series where the Dodgers and Giants traded victories, the Los Angeles Dodgers came out on top in their final victory over San Francisco. It was a nail-biter of a Game 5 right down to the controversial last call.
But hey, that’s baseball!
I took over our social media during the game. Here's how I tried to memorialize the experience, via cartoons.

You had to admit, that Giants home run was brutal and beautiful. Like staring into the void of the night sky.
