About this Quote
This quote by John Thorn is referring to the 2020 World Series, in which the Los Angeles Dodgers won the championship.

This was due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced the whole series to be dipped into the Texas Rangers' stadium. This quote is a testament to the strength of the Dodgers, who were able to conquer the special scenarios and win the champion.

The quote is a tip that even in the face of hardship, anything is possible.
