It's almost 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 vs. Dodgers,” the fan posted on X. “Game 4 Yankees with a bang.”

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

There's no telling how the fan knew what would happen – it was probably a lucky guess – but fans were blown away by the extremely accurate prediction.

Some fans responded by questioning whether their respective teams are in line for a World Series in 2025, while Yankees fans were more concerned about whether a comeback was in sight for them this year.

The fan has not provided any updates since the post went viral. So it seems New York fans will have to wait to find out her fate.

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

New York will look to keep that magic going on Wednesday as the series stays in the Bronx.
