Dodgers vs Giants

Not just the greatest baseball rivalry of all time but the greatest LA rivalry of all time perhaps. Also, arguments can and will be made about the top LA rivalry of all time.

This has to be the most prominent and aggressive rivalry in all of LA major sports. In my personal opinion I think this is the number one rivalry in all of LA sports.

Of course there are multiple reasons for this and I will do my best to simplify them.

For instance, when these two meet the game is always physical. Also, sometimes there could be clearing of both benches. Almost always both teams make the playoffs and we can see them face off in National League Championship Series to earn a spot in the World Series.
