Very Good Game !

 

[Unkle Krusty]

We think the Dodgers tried a bit harder towards the end.
The Blue Jays messed up game six at the end The second base runner blew it.

 

[Belvedere408]

I know there's a lot yet to be played, but...
this game feels over, in the third.
Scherzer does give up the long ball tho.

Edit: Wow! Bases loaded, one out, two miraculous catches to save at least three runs. BJ's, team of destiny?
2nd edit: Dodgers just aren't hitting. (Great BJ pitching!?) Barger's ws b.a. .522. Muncy's b.a. .052

Those were great catches.

epic!

I told the wife, when the last guy walked to make it first and third; one out........ he needs to steal second asap, or risk the double play.......if they choose to throw to second base, send the runner from third........force them to make the play

manager tightened up at the critical moment........he choked imo

I didn't like the bunt either, are we playing to tie? or to win? have some balls and bunt him home if you want the tie so bad

 

[33 IMP]

Unbelievable game, so many heroes in the last four innings.
First team to repeat asWS Champs in the National league in 50 years.
Congrats to the Blue Jay's too. He'll of a good team, wondrous series.

The adage is: play for the win on the road, play for a tie at home.

he didnt follow through....... suicide squeeze with one out




this series will be debated for decades ......... good stuff

 

[33 IMP]

I can't remember the last suicide squeeze I saw.
There are darn few decent bunters in the majors anymore.

 

[33 IMP]

A lot of people will remember Rohas's game tying hr, and Smith's winner. I wonder how many will remember Muncy's hr to get within one?

got him to third with a nice bunt...... following it up with a squeeze would have been awesome

 

[eldubb440]

the play at the plate followed by the collision in the outfield.......

 

[GTXDAN]

That was a great game. I agree with the suicide squeeze but nobody does it anymore. Back to back for the Dodgers. That's what lots of money will get you.

Canada Orders Toronto Blue Jays Players Euthanized​

Nov 3, 2025

TORONTO — Following the team's devastating loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 7 of the 2025 World Series, the Canadian government announced that it had ordered the players from the Toronto Blue Jays to be euthanized.

As is standard procedure in Canada, people who have outlived their usefulness and no longer provide the expected value to society are promptly scheduled to be exterminated. After failing to bring home a championship, the Blue Jays' roster was deemed to have reached the end of the line.

"It's what's best for all parties," said Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. "They had a great run, they almost pulled it off, but the harsh truth is that the Blue Jays are now more of a drain on resources than what they provide. It's a difficult decision to make, but it's the right one. I've given the official order to have them all euthanized."

Though unconfirmed, reports circulated that the Blue Jays would have been given a reprieve and been allowed to continue living had they been able to defeat the Dodgers. "We gave them an opportunity to keep going," said one member of Parliament who asked to remain anonymous. "They had their chances, both to win Game 7 and to stay alive. They didn't get the win, and unfortunately, sometimes in life, there are consequences. We don't make the rules. Well, actually, we do, but this was the decision, eh?"

At publishing time, the Toronto Blue Jays front office had notified the rest of the team in Major League Baseball that they were in desperate need to refill the entire roster for next season.

The Carney Curse. He visited the Edmonton Oilers for a silly, mostly self-serving photo op prior to their Stanley Cup Final series and they lost. Did the same with the Canadian Women's Rugby Team and they lost their final, too. Same for the Blue Jays...all teams lost their finals.

I'm not really a baseball fan but I watched the last half of the series with interest. Late in the last 2 games, Toronto failed to send runners home on several occasions, and this came back to haunt them. "Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory" sounds appropriate. I think Toronto played a fantastic series otherwise, and surpassed a lot of expectations. Congrats to LA!

the play at the plate followed by the collision in the outfield.......

That series-saving play in the outfield completely redeemed Pages's dismal plate performance throughout the playoffs. I wonder how many will remember and give credit to Roberts for putting him BACK in center for his defense, only a couple batters earlier.

 

[Budnicks]

I see a bunch of whinners complained about the ball
that got stuck in the base of the wall padding, in center field/outfield (?),
in the later 9th inning, with Dodgers on the field...
Or Blue Jays would've won...

Added some drama...

It's a rule,
good thing the Dodger's outfielder 'knew the rule'
that the moment, that he touches that ball, it's a live ball,
smart play
fair (?)
it's in the rules, all teams play by that same rule,
some bitter losers, are the whinners

I have no dog in the fight, don't care really

Congrats to the Dodgers, winning back to back World Series
hasn't been done in decades, in the National League at a min.
Seemingly they played better "or smarter" then the Blue Jays
$350million salary cap, helped maybe, still gotta' play the game...
I'd rather have an American Team (even if the LA Dodgers), win America's Game
but;
I don't really like either team, or either city at all, but it was an entertaining series
& that 18 inning win game, to tie it up by LA's wining homerun
game was a great pitchers duel, that batters finally won it

Yep great decision by Roberts for sure. On the post game he said he put Pages in cause of his arm to throw out possible sac fly.
