It’s nearly impossible to predict the outcome of the World Series early in the season, let alone years in advance.

However, one baseball fan had no trouble predicting how the 2024 World Series would play out in 2016.

After the New York Yankees defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4 of the Fall Classic on Tuesday, a post from 2016 resurfaced in which a fan correctly predicted the outcome.

“2024 World Series. Yankees v Dodgers,” the fan posted on X. “Game 4 Yankees with a low out.”

The Dodgers took a 3-0 series lead, but in Game 4 – just as the fan predicted – the Yankees won 11-4 in dominant fashion.

It is not known how the fan knew what was going to happen – it was probably a lucky guess – but fans were amazed by the highly accurate prediction.

Some fans responded by asking if their teams should make it to a World Series in 2025, while Yankees fans were more concerned that a comeback was in store for them this year.

The fan hasn’t provided any updates since the post went viral, so it looks like New York fans will have to wait to find out their fate.

The Yankees will need a historic comeback to erase a 3-0 deficit against the Dodgers, but a big win in Game 4 swings the momentum in their favor. After sluggish offensive performances in the first three games of the series, the New York bats rallied on Tuesday and scored 11 runs, the most of the postseason for the Yankees.

New York will look to continue that magic on Wednesday as the series remains in the Bronx.
