Who do you cheer for?

Well, well, well
Another night with new all time World Series records being set, and another Blue Jays win!
Back to Toronto for game 6 with the Jays up 3 games to 2.
Can't wait for Friday night!

Yesavage was totally boss!!! Amazing performance from a rookie.
Looks like Springer will be back in action for Game 6.
It'll be exciting. I'd like to see Toronto pull it off at home. If there's a game 7 that's going to be nuts!

The Dodgers and their fans seemed stunned as the game wore on last night.

Now if only my beloved Toronto Maple Leafs could... ya nevermind

Yeah...you better wait til all the shoes drop for the Bluejays before wishing more from anybody else.
I'm hoping they'll deliver for the home crowd tomorrow night and it could certainly happen but unless Yamamoto is uncharacteristically off, he'll be nearly impossible to hit against.
I predict a close game with a tight finish, probably in extra innings...let's just all do our best to manifest walk-off energy.

 

[Craigerrr]

My hopes are high, and my expectations are... we'll not low but reasonable.
I'm enjoying this immensely, proud of this team, and happy for them. They all seem to be embracing the fact that they virtually have an entire nation behind them!
Win or lose this is one hell of a ball team, and a very classy group of humans!

Set a new all time record for most strike outs *by a rookie* in a world series game with 12.

Fixed
Let's not sell Bob Gibson short. And...Go Blue Jays!

Oh yes, I see Gibson had 13 in 1964, and 17 in 1968. Thanks for fact checking that for me, I feel a little foolish now... there were a few others including Mr. Koufax that had more than 12. Gotta give it to the kid for being in rarified air though!
Let's end it tonight!
Yamamoto may have other ideas though!

Here is another nod to Trey Yesavage

Go Dodgers!

 

[Craigerrr]

Go Dodgers!

Gotta say it! Boooooo

 

[west1m]

oooH... Yeah!

 

[west1m]

Just think how much more $$$ will be made on tickets, BEER and hot dogs!

 

[J A]

That was a let-down of cosmic proportions!! Wedged in the warning track cushion??!! That once-in-a-lifetime fluke cost the tie and game. Major bummer!!

 

[Craigerrr]

If you asked me in April, would I take a World Series game 7 at home, I would have said "are you kidding me! ABSOLUTELY"

Well, you can't say there's hasn't been plenty of action and drama. They've packed about as much great baseball into this series as anyone could hope for.

I am only pulling for the Dodgers because I am from LA.
The Dodger pitching coach should be fired for putting that looser pitcher back in the top of the 9th. Darn near cost the game and I think I chugged a whole beer in the first couple minutes of the inning.

 

[Craigerrr]

Bo!!!!!

 

[Craigerrr]

That is tough, but what a gutsy performance by those Blue Jays

Great moments but all the breaks seemed to go the Dodgers' way in the last inning. I checked out after the 9th.
Gotta give it up or Rojas, though...zero to hero with the tying run AND game-saving out in the last inning.

 

[Craigerrr]

World Series, Games 7, Extra Innings, bases loaded situations, it was an amazing Series and game.
