"We wanted to put the audience right in the guts of this story -- the tension, the triumph, the heartbreak. As in life, the game of baseball is never over until the final out -- you feel that in this series and your heart pounds with every twist and turn."

The Dodgers ultimately won the title in October, marking the eighth win for the team.

"This is one of the most exciting match-ups that we could have even wished for," an announcer says in the trailer, released Monday.

"As someone who has lived these moments firsthand, I'm proud to help share this story and give viewers an unprecedented look at what it truly takes to compete on baseball's biggest stage," he said in the release.
