You might want to re-think your Halloween plans, because the deciding World Series championship game is coming home to Toronto this weekend.
After the Toronto Blue Jays’ epic 6-2 win last night at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, the series is officially tied up at two games apiece, ensuring the series will return to Toronto.
After a grueling 18-inning loss in Game 3 and the absence of injured big-hitter George Springer, the Jays bounced back in Game 4 to outplay the Dodgers in front of over 52,000 fans at Dodger Stadium.
Fan-favourite Vladimir Guerrero Jr. provided the turning point, crushing a two-run homer off Shohei Ohtani to flip a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 lead. Guerrero now holds franchise postseason records with seven home runs and 14 RBIs.
A four-run seventh inning, featuring hits from Daulton Varsho, Ernie Clement, Bo Bichette, and Addison Barger, sealed the win.
Tonight during Game 5, Toronto’s Trey Yesavage will face Blake Snell of the Dodgers.
