ELYSIAN PARK, LOS ANGELES (KABC) — After the World Championship Dodgers returned victorious from New York on Thursday morning, several of the Boys in Blue outside Dodger Stadium were mobbed by boisterous fans as the players exited the parking lot.

Dozens of fans gathered in front of the stadium in Elysian Park and pounced on individual players' vehicles as they drove past.

Among the players mobbed was pitcher Anthony Banda, who rolled down his passenger-side window and greeted well-wishers.

When asked by ABC7 how he felt about the Dodgers' win over the Yankees, he used an expletive and said “amazing” with a smile.

One fan, who only gave her name as Amber, said she was feeling “amazing.” It's a wonderful feeling. I remember 2020 when we didn't have a parade, but now we're getting it to prove everyone kept saying the 2020 World Series wasn't a real World Series.

After taking advantage of three errors to erase a five-run deficit in the fifth inning during one of the most memorable midgame collapses in baseball history, the Dodgers took advantage of eighth-inning sacrifice flies from Gavin Lux and Mookie Betts to lead New York by 7 :6 to beat on Wednesday evening.

“In spring training we said this and we did it,” Betts declared, champagne burning in his eyes.

The scene outside Dodgers Stadium on Thursday was significantly more peaceful than some isolated incidents that occurred in LA the night before

After the Dodgers' victory, rowdy crowds took to the streets, set fire to a city bus, broke into stores and set off fireworks. Police reported a dozen arrests, but officials stressed that most fans were celebrating peacefully.

Video showed revelers in downtown LA throwing objects at police as sirens blared and officers asked them to leave the area.

Another video showed someone standing on a bus waving a Dodgers banner and people running from a boarded-up Nike store with armfuls of sneakers before throwing the merchandise into cars parked outside. No injuries were reported.

Despite some unrest, “the vast majority of celebrations last night were joyous and peaceful,” Mayor Karen Bass said at a news conference Thursday discussing the logistics of Friday's planned victory parade.
