Dodgers vs Blue Jays - World Series Game 5
Digest more
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. refuses to let Shohei Ohtani and the Dodgers dominate the story of this World Series. The Jays’ slugger led his team to a 6-2 win over Ohtani and co. with a home run and a couple of RBIs to even the World Series at two games apiece.
So when they played two games worth of baseball in Game 3 of the World Series and walked away only with a devastating setback that threatened their season, with the greatest two-way player in baseball history staring down from the mound in Game 4, the Blue Jays were all too happy to note that even a dispiriting 18-inning loss only counts as one.
The Jays pride themselves in moving past losses but pushing Monday to the past requires another level of strength.
Perhaps most impressive is that the Blue Jays were able to generate more offense than the Dodgers, even without one of their most successful postseason hitters in the lineup. The Blue Jays lost slugger George Springer after he experienced right side discomfort in Game 3 and he was ruled out for Game 4.
