'Can We Please Have A Parade': LA Sports Icons, Teams React To Dodgers World Series Win
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — From Vin Scully to LeBron James, Los Angeles sports icons and teams took to social media after the Los Angeles Dodgers clinched their seventh World Series title Tuesday in six games against the Tampa Bay Rays.
James took to Twitter Tuesday night, calling Los Angeles the "city of champions" and begging for a celebration parade, something city officials have said cannot happen due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
Man can we PLEASE have a parade!!! I know I know we can't but DAMN I wanna celebrate with our @Lakers & @Dodgers fans!!! LA is the city of CHAMPIONS ????????

"What a year. What a season. What a team," Vin Scully tweeted.
'55, '59, '63, '65, '81, '88, and now 2020.
