Halloween night was a treat for Los Angeles Dodger fans, and a trick for Houston Astros faithful. The Dodgers won Game 6 of the World Series Tuesday at Dodger Stadium, forcing the ultimate contest in Major League Baseball, a little winner-take-all contest we like to call Game 7.
This is the second straight World Series with a Game 7, the third World Series Game 7 in the last four years, and the fourth in the last seven years, CBS Sports pointed out.

Astros pitcher Lance McCullers is literally already warming up.
Lance McCullers wants Game 7 NOW. He started throwing in the outfield just minutes after Game 6 ended. pic.twitter.com/98JeQpW0NE

Thank you 🙌🙌. I didn't throw Pre game because I was in the pen for late innings tonight so I had to get my work in post game. Nothing else. https://t.co/2BOr50YxXJ

And now the real question: Who's gonna win?
Some love LA.
We don’t always play baseball in November...but when we do it’s for game 7 of the freakin World Series! #ShowDodgers #LAstandUP

Game 7 will last 3 days. Puig will pitch. Dodgers will win on a walk-off inside-the-park home run by Ethier. Welcome to November baseball.

Kenley Jansen said before game 6 if the Dodgers force a game 7 they (Dodgers) don't think the Astros have a chance.

Some just think you shouldn't bet on whoever retired slugger David Ortiz is picking.
Here's hoping that @davidortiz doesn't pick your team to win Game 7... pic.twitter.com/BqD95hxMDn
