I want Toronto to win it to piss Trump off. (Although LA winning would probably piss him off as well).

I might need to re-evaluate my prediction after that.

Getting Bichette back was a big boost for Toronto.

Shame that Cavan Biggio never really made it for the Blue Jays. Although Daulton Varsho has replaced him as one of the three ‘Sons of former Major Leaguers’ in the lineup.

Alejandro Kirk is evidence that baseball is a sport for people of all shapes and sizes

Only if you're a catcher or DH. Although seeing him at SS or CF would be fun. They should do that if they're 20 up in a game, fuck unwritten rules, rub their faces in it and take the piss.

Yep, I’ll give you the fact that Alejandro is the slowest player in MLB at the moment.

Josh Naylor is nearly as slow as Kirk, and yet he steals a decent number of bases.

He also winds up the opposition by jumping around on the bases

It was always going to be tough if Yamamoto got into his groove. Still a long way to go.

That was a very impressive pitching performance, could have better if Toronto had taken advantage in the bottom of the 1st.

Ohtani on base 9 times in 9 at bats, Will Klein throwing more than twice as many pitches as he ever has before.

2-2! So one way or another the Series will end in Toronto. I thought Varland was going to blow it for a minute then.

Destiny was calling at the bottom of the 9th but they failed to hear her cry. One more chance.

What a great series, but one that will haunt the Jays for a long time.
