In 2017, the Dodgers faced the Houston Astros in a highly anticipated World Series matchup. Despite having a strong lineup and dominating the regular season, the Dodgers lost to the Astros in seven games. The Astros were later found guilty of cheating, further exacerbating the Dodgers' sense of unluckiness. In 2018, the Dodgers once again made it to the World Series, this time facing off against the Boston Red Sox. Despite their efforts, they were defeated in five games, leaving fans and players disappointed once again. The 2020 season seemed like the Dodgers' redemption year. With a shortened season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the team had a standout year and reached the World Series for the third time in four years. This time, they faced the Tampa Bay Rays. The Dodgers managed to win the series in six games, finally breaking their streak of unluckiness and bringing a championship home to Los Angeles. Although the Dodgers were able to overcome their unlucky spell in 2020, their previous failures in the World Series left a mark on the team and its fans. The team's talent and regular-season success make their lack of championship titles all the more disappointing. However, the 2020 victory has given hope to Dodgers supporters that their luck has finally turned around, and they can build on their success in the future..
