"After working a 3-2 count, Rojas unloaded on a Jeff Hoffman slider - pulling the pitch over the left field wall to notch the game at 4-4. Will Smith later hit the go-ahead homer in the 11th inning which proved to be the game-winning run thus clinching a second-straight title for the Boys in Blue. The theater surrounding the hit was something akin to a Christopher Nolan film."
"In an interview with Doug McKain of Dodgers Nation Rojas revealed that his wife predicted he'd hit a homer at some point in the postseason. Rojas's confidence was a bit down with a lack of playing time leading up to the crucial Game 7. Even then, his wife was steadfast in her belief that he'd come up with a homer when given the opportunity to impact the game in a crucial moment."
