That Springer home run is even more iconic than Bautista's. So clutch.

Definitely up there. Top 3. Nothing beats Joe Carter's...

We get our second best player back hopefully, that will help our chances.
It’ll be amazing if he can PH for someone like Giminez so we really wouldn’t have any weak links in that lineup

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet

Embiid
There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

Carter's still number one. But we'll see what happens vs the Dodgers.

Re: OT: Blue Jays Win the Pennant! Moving on to the World Series
What a run, this gives me a slight hope that an Ed Rogers run team, can win here in Toronto, in spite of him. On to the finals

Giminez and IKF have both done really well. There really hasn't been any weak link in the lineup this series.

Re: OT: Blue Jays Win the Pennant! Moving on to the World Series
Such a gutsy legendary performance by this team.
Offence is getting shutdown for most of the game but they get a few runners on and Springer hits a 3 run homerun.
Then Hoffman with the season he's had comes in and strikes out the side in the 9th to maintain the 1 run lead.
Surreal.

Re: OT: Blue Jays Win the Pennant! Moving on to the World Series
Incredible. Springer’s home run is second only to Joe Carter’s. Seeing Rogers hold that trophy made me nauseous, there is something truly off putting about that man.

Boom!!
Underrate this team. Keep talking about Dodgers being heavy favourites.
One thing I will say is that the MLB media shows a ton of respect for this team from USA. Very different from the NBA American media xenophobia that exists. It’s a breath of fresh air.

If he's healthy, it would be huge if he could hit behind Vladdy for some protection too.

Great comeback. This is the equivalent of Raptors comeback from the Bucks 0-2.
These Jays and championship Raps are the anti Leafs.

If they win the WS, they will have beaten both the Yankees and Dodgers in the same playoff season.
Has that ever happened?

It will be an uphill battle but this team does better as underdogs.
No one picked us to win against the Yankees and most people picked the Mariners to win.
Absolutely no one is picking us in the World Series.

I know Hoffman has some nasty stuff, but I felt like he was somewhat lucky they chased some of those pitches... he had real pitch command issues tonight.

Hoffman is hit and miss but he closed it up when it mattered the last 2 nights.
At least we've seen that he can perform under pressure.

Definitely up there. Top 3. Nothing beats Joe Carter's...
1. Carter
2. Springer
3a. Alomar
3b. Bautista
Is how I'd rank it.

Vladdy's grand slam against the Yankees is up there too. He absolutely destroyed the Yankees and their fanbase at that very moment.
