This is the sixth straight season in which a Will Smith wins a World Series:
 
2025: C Will Smith (LAD)
2024: C Will Smith (LAD)
2023: LHP Will Smith (TEX)
2022: LHP Will Smith (HOU)
2021: LHP Will Smith (ATL)
2020: C Will Smith (LAD)

"He just got two sides of the plate that are very good for a pitcher and very bad for a hitter"

You know the zone is bad when John Smoltz is even saying it.

John Schneider tells us that just before the #BlueJays took the field for Game 6 last night, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. told the team:

“If you’re nervous tonight, look at me.”

The Toronto Blue Jays.

The Los Angeles Dodgers.

Both looking for their moment at the center of the baseball universe.

Game on.

FOX sports nails the pregame hype again.

Then.
Now.
Forever.

Let's Go Blue Jays.

#BlueJays #Dodgers #WorldSeries #WantItAll

From Doubters To Believers The Blue Jays are one win away from glory...so why am I so afraid of them reaching for the belt?

On Friday morning, before Game 6, I wrote about being one win away and afraid to reach.

They reached.

They fell.

And somehow, that doesn't change what it meant to climb.

Here's what I'm teaching my son about this moment.

I never thought the Blue Jays would be playing this late into October and now for the first time in history, we get to see them play in November.

Game 7 for all the marbles. What a series.

#BlueJays #Dodgers #WorldSeries #WantItAll

what an especially barf-y World Series baseball game for both fanbases. the dream!

my heart feels like it is going to fly out of my chest

#BlueJays #Dodgers #WorldSeries #WantItAll

I wonder how Stacey May Fowles is feeling tonight

#BlueJays #Dodgers #WorldSeries

The Toronto Blue Jays are one win away from being crowned World Series champions.

Those are 14 words I never thought I'd type out in my life.

Players who have hit a homerun on the first pitch of a World Series game:

Pete Rose

Derek Jeter

David Freese

Alcides Escobar

Chris Taylor

Davis Schneider

Kershaw is warming in the bullpen. It would be so amazing to see the future Hall of Famer come in. A last farewell. A touching moment capped by giving up a grand slam to like Ernie Clement

Max Scherzer becomes the first pitcher to pitch for four different teams in World Series. He credits it to screaming at his managers

Teoscar Hernandez hitting a homerun against the Blue Jays in the World Series was not on my lifetime bingo card.

MLB: what can we offer you, the fans

FANS: announcers who love the game; discussion of the modern era’s connection to the game’s deep legacy; a game that can appeal to all fans

MLB: you got it, here’s the Jonas Brothers and a bunch of gambling line

The funny thing is there is already a musical break built into baseball. Why not just do that in the seventh? And have them sing take me out to the ballgame?

Blue Jays fans who just started watching baseball three weeks ago are about to get the FULL Jeff Hoffman experience 😅

#BlueJays #Dodgers #WorldSeries #Postseason #WantItAll

Addison Barger is the 24th player in Major League history to hit a grand slam in the World Series.

What a moment.

MOOKIE BETTS: it's the fall classic

GEORGE SPRINGER: welcome to the World Series

ME: 🥺

#BlueJays #Dodgers #WorldSeries #WantItAll

it's 3:30 in the morning and I'm in bed still thinking of this entire series. I can't believe how awesome it turned out and I can't believe that OUR BLUE JAYS won the fucking pennant.

Matt Kemp Never Played For The Toronto Blue Jays But the 3 a.m. walk-off home run in MLB 08: The Show seventeen years ago taught me everything I needed to know about this moment

From a PS2 walkoff in 2008 to Game 7 tonight. A lot has changed in 17 years.

I wrote about the wait, the hope and what it means to finally share a dream you once held alone in your living room.

“my favorite baseball team is doing better than they ever have before“
“that must be wonderful”
“It’s the worst thing thats ever happened to me”

I have never experienced a Toronto Blue Jays game 7 I think I may vomit tomorrow

They're so close to the WORLD SERIES

Vlad jr and Varsho

Vlad loves the lights

for the thousandth time this season, I would once again like to understand how John Schneider makes decisions.

Let the kid work out of a base hit and build his confidence. How demoralizing is it for the #Mariners if they hear the crowd erupt at a third out from Trey? I hate this.

#BlueJays #ALCS

with the blast to left field, Vladimir Guerrero Jr is now the 31st player in major league HISTORY to hit 6 or more homeruns in a single postseason.

IKF to Andres Gimenez for the bases loaded double play
