Hello to the entire Full Sports community. In baseball, as in all sports, cabals are always the order of the day but there is one in particular in the Big Top that is giving a lot of talk and has as its protagonist two players with the same name: Will Smith In baseball, unusual statistics abound, such as that of Stan Musial, who hit the same number of hits both home and away (1815). The last one before which we will touch on today was that of former player Kris Davis, members of the Texas Rangers, Toronto Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles, who hit for an average of 247 in four consecutive seasons (2015-2018). Incredible truth The stratospheric cabal began in the 2020 season, a season marked by the COVID-19 pandemic had a cut in the calendar to only 60 games in which Dodgers catcher Will Smith won that World Series that year against the Tampa Rays, in a bubble that had all its games at Globe Life Field in Texas. The Dodgers won again in 2024 and 2025 against the Yankees and Blue Jays, respectively, in which the mask of the team led by Dave Roberts always had an excellent performance to the point of hitting at least one home run in each of the three World Series in which he has participated. Now, how does the streak continue if Will Smith doesn't earn more with the Dosgers until 2024? Well nothing, the other Will Smith of the MLB appeared. Will Smith pitcher, a veteran left-handed reliever who made his last appearance in 2024 with the Royals, closing a 12-season career in the Major Leagues. He won a World Series ring in each year between 2021 and 2023, becoming the first player in MLB history to integrate the World Series roster of three different teams in consecutive years and be crowned champion in each. He won the title with the Braves in 2021, the Astros in 2022 and the Rangers in 2023 We return to the 2024 season, in which the Dodgers, who already had star Shohei Ohtani in their ranks, defeated the Yankees in five games. Will Smith had a postseason to remember, as he hit 354 with 5 homers and 12 RBIs to continue the cabal. And yesterday he was a key player in winning his third ring by hitting the go-ahead home run against Shane Bieber in the top of the 11th inning, which ended up being the difference in the 5-4 victory in extra-imnings to continue the cabal for the sixth consecutive season. Now the Californian roster is the first team to win consecutive titles since the Yankees between 1998 and 2000
