No doubt they deserved it.

1988 is a well-remembered year in Los Angeles.
This is the last year that the two teams from the city, the Lakers and the Dodgers, have won the championship together.
The Lakers have been picking up since titles, the Dodgers have not.
Tonight the balance has changed.
Los Angeles defeated Tampa Bay 1: 3, completed 2: 4 in the series and won the World Series.
Part of the win owes Los Angeles to Kevin Cash, the Rayz coach.
Blake Snell, his pitcher, was dominant for five innings but on Friday brought Austin Burns to the base.
Cash, oddly enough, decided to replace him and it cost him two runs, one of them as a result of a wild serve from Nick Anderson.
From a 1: 0 deficit the Dodgers went up to 1: 2, added a run later and kept the lead to win.
Corey Cigar was the standout in the series, after hitting 40 percent with five runners and six walks.
He hit a ball that allowed Muki Bets to enter the house and go up 1-2 in the sixth inning.
Betts, by the way, only arrived this year on a trade from Boston: "I'm just glad I came and glad I was able to contribute," he said at the end.
Justin Turner of the Dodgers started the game, but in the eighth inning his positive test result came and he was dropped from the game after being diagnosed in Corona.
However, this is still America, and Turner arrived on the field about an hour after graduation and was photographed with the title, receiving a hug from Clayton Kershaw.
