Dodgers wins epic Game 7 in Toronto

What a wild game!

In a Game 7 for the ages, the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 in 11 innings in Toronto, securing their ninth championship and becoming the first team to repeat since the 2000 Yankees.

Trailing 4-3 entering the ninth, the Dodgers mounted a stunning comeback, tying the game on Miguel Rojas’s improbable solo home run off closer Jeff Hoffman with two outs—a blast that barely cleared the wall and forced extras. The Jays, who had dominated much of the series with strong pitching from veterans like 41-year-old Max Scherzer (clutch in relief) and rookie phenom Cade Yesavage, couldn’t close the door despite leading for most of the night.

The Blue Jays had so many chances to win this game, but it slipped through their hands.

This seven-game epic, featuring an 18-inning Game 3 marathon, cemented the 2025 World Series as an instant classic.

“I don’t believe what I just saw!” – Jack Buck and the greatest call in baseball history

We keep losing videos that have the audio of this great call from Game 1 of the 1988 World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Oakland A’s. Jack Buck is calling the game, and if you can find the video, you’ll hear Buck’s legendary call of Kirk Gibson’s shocking home run.

World Series ratings plummet

The Boston Red Sox dominated the Los Angeles Dodgers to win the World Series 4-1, but the ratings were pretty bad as detailed in this article. For many this is a surprise given the matchup of two iconic franchiese from large markets. This will be a hot topic for debate, but the late start for the games has to be addressed.

Madison Bumgarner quiets Royals

The commentary above brings up a good point – the Giants probably needed this game more with Madison Bumgarner on the mound. They needed their ace to step up and he did. He also stopped the ridiculous post-season winning streak by the Royals.

Now we’ll see how the Royals react. They’ve been resilient during games, and now they have to bounce back from a home loss and avoid going down to games heading to San Francisco.

The ratings are down for this World Series, and a boring game one won’t help. That’s a shames as the Royals are such a good story. If they rebound we might see more fans tune in.

Meanwhile, the Giants have the chance to become one of those boring dynasties like the San Antonio Spurs if they can win this Series.
