Mary Hart Misses Epic Dodgers Walk-Off in World Series Game 3
LOS ANGELES, CA — Mary Hart, the iconic former host of “Entertainment Tonight,” was spotted in her usual front-row seat at Dodger Stadium during the 2025 World Series Game 3 on October 27. However, just before a dramatic 18th inning that ended with a walk-off home run, she left the game, missing a historic moment.
The game, which lasted nearly seven hours, featured an epic battle between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays that ultimately ended with the Dodgers winning 6-5. Freddie Freeman hit a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 18th inning, securing a 2-1 series lead for Los Angeles.
Hart’s love for the Dodgers runs deep; she has been a devoted fan for more than 40 years, even once serving as a bat girl at a Hollywood Stars game before becoming a prominent face at Dodger games. She has sung the national anthem numerous times and is instantly recognizable to millions of viewers watching from home.
During her time at the game, Hart witnessed significant plays, including Shohei Ohtani‘s historic performance with two home runs and four extra-base hits. Yet, as the game wore on, fatigue likely set in, and she made the decision to leave during the 17th inning. Her absence became a hot topic on social media, with fans joking about her bad timing.
“I saw Mary Hart in the stands for the 17th inning. But during the 18th, she was gone. She missed Freeman’s homer!” one Reddit user commented, highlighting the ironic twist in Hart’s long-standing fandom.
As the series proceeds to Game 4, which will take place in Los Angeles, the Dodgers aim for their first repeat championship since the late 1990s. They now only require two more wins to clinch the title. Meanwhile, Hart will be watching from home, reflecting on the game she left too soon.
Her story is a reminder of the unpredictable nature of sports and the heartbreak that can come with being a devoted fan.
