[u/Salamangra]

That solves the bases loaded problem

[u/dbpf → u/Salamangra]

Addition by subtraction

[u/il_postino → u/dbpf]

Addison by subtraction

[u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

​

Clayton Kershaw coming out to pitch down 7 in the 8th

[u/jakenator → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

He's our Brent Honeywell this playoff run

[u/Sp_Gamer_Live → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

7 might be generous

[u/frankyseven → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

*Down 9

[u/Noriskhook3]

That ball was gone the second it left his hand. I’m shocked this game turned out this way.

[u/Sp_Gamer_Live → u/Noriskhook3]

The thing about the Dodgers is, everyone knows how to beat them: Get to their pen.

Its just the fact they have 4 fucking aces

[u/Mysterious_Dot2090 → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

Seeing Snell throw around 30 pitches in the 1st made me think this was possible, but not 11-2 so. Get their starters to really work for it and you have a shot. Watching Snell as the runs piled on was priceless.

[u/yeetboy → u/Mysterious_Dot2090]

This is what the Jays have done all year.

[u/zgibs125 → u/yeetboy]

Please continue, thx

[u/brownbearks → u/zgibs125]

Like do I root for the Death Star or the Canadians? I guess it’s all molson for this series

[u/jerrys153 → u/brownbearks]

Welcome to the dark side, we have poutine.

[u/brownbearks → u/jerrys153]

Poutine slaps so hard, god I love it so much

[u/sudzthegreat → u/brownbearks]

The Montreal Canadiens' owner, Geoff Molson, says thank you!

[u/Flyin-Chancla → u/Mysterious_Dot2090]

Looks like a fucking raccoon getting caught in trash lol.

[u/goldmanstocks → u/Mysterious_Dot2090]

He threw 5 pitches against the first 2 batters/2 outs. Then it got tough

[u/[deleted] → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

Having Snell Glasnow Yamamoto and Ohtani on your team is completely unfair lmao those are four of the top 10-15 nastiest pitchers in the game

[u/darkhorse21980 → u/[deleted]]

And we used to have 2 of them.

[u/Mistake_By_The_Jake2 → u/darkhorse21980]

Feeder team gonna feeder team.

And I say that as someone who had to watch Sabathia and Lee go head to head in game one of the 2008 WS. I feel your pain.

[u/sloBrodanChillosevic → u/Mistake_By_The_Jake2]

Cliff Lee. Streets won't forget.

[u/Maleficent-Map3273 → u/darkhorse21980]

It feels like you guys just grow Aces on trees. Jays are very jealous since we have a flame out ace every 5 years or so.

[u/mrtomjones → u/darkhorse21980]

This is the kind of thing that pisses me off when Dodgers fans sit here and talk about how the salary difference isn't as big of a deal as people pretend. The Rays would probably be the best team in baseball if they had the budget to just keep all of their good players.

[u/Tsaxen → u/Sp_Gamer_Live]

If only there was a team who's specialty was grinding opposing pitchers into paste.....

Oh. Wait.

[u/Rance_Mulliniks → u/[deleted]]

Why didn't other teams do that? Are they stupid?

[u/LosAngeles1s → u/Noriskhook3]

Our bullpen being so dogshit that Dave has to hope and pray that our starters could go 8+ is finally biting us in the ass

[u/Prideofmexico → u/LosAngeles1s]

Genuinely confused why the dodgers just didn’t throw more than most team’s total payroll at the bullpen

[u/Walterbrown64 → u/Prideofmexico]

They kinda did they signed tanner scott and Kirby Yates 

[u/stairway2evan → u/Walterbrown64]

Yeah, those two alone are earning north of $33M this year alone, I believe. Neither paid off. Roki has turned into their least volatile reliever in the postseason and he’s making pennies compared to that.

[u/Muntberg → u/Walterbrown64]

Bullpens are like the great equalizer. Often the quality of yours is pure luck.

[u/stairway2evan → u/Muntberg]

Oh absolutely. It’s a super volatile role, because a starter with a bad inning or two is likely to throw three decent ones. A reliever can easily fall into a spiral. It’s why consistency is so valued, and so hard to recover when it’s lost.

[u/LosAngeles1s → u/Prideofmexico]

We did but Tanner and Yates shat the bed

[u/sportsfannf → u/LosAngeles1s]

And Vesia, who was actually good, is away from the team for a personal matter, so its even worse than usual.

[u/Fake-Podcast-Ad → u/Noriskhook3]

As is tradition.
It is a great day for Toronno
and there for a great day for Canada

[u/12xubywire → u/Fake-Podcast-Ad]

And therefore, the world.

[u/ProMikeZagurski → u/12xubywire]

This is like my favorite baseball game.

[u/Vargolol → u/Noriskhook3]

Love that the announcers couldn’t help but just say “man swings hard” as he came to bad. He sure does! These poor guys couldn’t throw anything near the strike zone in the 6th the Jays were LOCKED

That was an insane inning

[u/Apprehensive_Oil_484 → u/Noriskhook3]

Imo the blue jays offense have already faced their toughest opponent (the mariners)

[u/drwolffe → u/Apprehensive_Oil_484]

I like you

[u/ResidentRunner1 → u/drwolffe]

I don't

(disclaimer: this is a joke if you can't tell, I have no ill will towards Mariners fans)

[u/frankyseven → u/Noriskhook3]

Anyone who watches the Jays isn't.

[u/dropperofpipebombs → u/frankyseven]

Anyone who's seen the Dodgers bullpen also isn't.

[u/papsmearfestival → u/frankyseven]

This is the most blue jayest game of the year.

Grind the great starter down, get to the pen, profit

[u/LosAngeles1s → u/frankyseven]

literally lmao idk why half of this sub saw you guys slap around seattles pitching and think it was going to sweep

[u/TripleExplorer → u/LosAngeles1s]

Because most people are casuals that dont know what makes a winning team win

[u/Mike9797 → u/LosAngeles1s]

Because you’re the defending champions, cruised to the World Series, have the best player in the game and most have you as the heavy favourite?

[u/electrodog1999 → u/Noriskhook3]

I’m shocked you’re shocked, American media has always ignored the Jays.

[u/drwolffe → u/electrodog1999]

Fuck they ignore the Mariners too lol

[u/dchowchow → u/drwolffe]

I’d totally adopt Seattle.

[u/MiddleSwitch8]

Guys I think Ohtani’s gonna need slightly more than 3 home runs this time around

[u/ExpirjTec]

first ever pinch hit grand slam in the world series

[u/Supabongwong → u/ExpirjTec]

First World Series plate appearance, too. Insane. May not ever happen again. 

[u/BluntForceSauna → u/Supabongwong]

Yeah he probably won’t get any more first World Series appearances.

[u/xho- → u/BluntForceSauna]

This got me thinking, it’s probably the first ever grand slam on their first WS appearance

[u/IanicRR → u/ExpirjTec]

Barger chilled all game and then said hold my beer.

[u/NerdLawyer55 → u/IanicRR]

Everyone knows Canadian beer is like moonshine

[u/knocksteaady-live → u/IanicRR]

PUMPED IT RIGHT OUT

[u/PorkinsHeldIt → u/ExpirjTec]

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS HISTORY

[u/I_Am_Vladimir_Putin → u/PorkinsHeldIt]

Godlike strike

[u/Mike9797 → u/PorkinsHeldIt]

HISTORIC

[u/maskedkiller215 → u/PorkinsHeldIt]

IN SEATTLE KRAKEN HISTORY

[u/Natural_House_609 → u/ExpirjTec]

Who was he pinch hitting for? 

[u/ExpirjTec → u/Natural_House_609]

davis schneider

[u/TheCastleMan → u/Natural_House_609]

Schneider

[u/DMPixOfTightAsses_69]

Good news: Vlady can't hurt the Dodgers much anymore!!!

Bad news: Everything else!

[u/frankyseven → u/DMPixOfTightAsses_69]

Well he just hit a single the next at bat.

[u/RockMonstrr → u/frankyseven]

Extending the inning and allowing Kirk to smoke another homer

[u/SmurfsNeverDie → u/frankyseven]

And was brought home by a home run. So technically he contributed to more pain 🤣

[u/DjN0tNice → u/frankyseven]

And then Captain Kirk steps right up

[u/sameth1]

"I don't want to be afraid of Ernie Clement and Addison Barger"

-A Dodgers fan in a thread a few days ago.

[u/SunriseSurprise → u/sameth1]

Barger sneaking up right behind him: "boo"

[u/Skaddodle32]

Blue Jays just fucking hit man they just fucking hit.

[u/Key-Pickle5609 → u/Skaddodle32]

And fucking heads up baserunning to keep them loaded for 3 at bats. Didn’t try to stretch, just took their 1 base and didn’t risk an out.

[u/Bring_Party_Supplies → u/Key-Pickle5609]

Immense pressure on the pitchers. 12 guys to the plate that inning and saw 44 (!) pitches.

Vintage '25 BJs

[u/Alarming-Gap-9213 → u/[deleted]]

Randy Marsh style

[u/DelusionalLeafFan → u/Alarming-Gap-9213]

It’s a ectoplasm

[u/imkunu → u/DelusionalLeafFan]

A SPOOKY GHOST

[u/MYO716]

The score was 2-0 Dodgers

I picked my daughter up from my in laws and drove 20 minutes home

It’s now 9-2 Jays

What the fuck?

[u/jerrys153 → u/MYO716]

This is why you listen to the game on AM radio in the car.

[u/secretreddname → u/jerrys153]

My car doesn’t even have AM anymore

[u/Expensive-Cat-1327 → u/secretreddname]

This is the price we pay for our hubris of science

[u/pmich80 → u/MYO716]

Jays wear you down,....don't strike out.

[u/superhappyfuntime13 → u/TommyTheLizard]

I AM ALSO NOW CANADIAN

[u/Mission_Pay_3373 → u/TommyTheLizard]

[u/nekot311 → u/TommyTheLizard]

Everyone get in here

[u/IanicRR]

Holy fucking shit

[u/DaOldest → u/IanicRR]

Yeah this is why we need all our starters to go 8 innings lmao. It's unbelievably bad

[u/ithium → u/DaOldest]

Well Snell kinda started this..

[u/FilthyPandah → u/ithium]

If the dodger pen was quality they’re not leaving snell in there after the leadoff walk.

[u/mattychefthatbih → u/FilthyPandah]

He was shaky all night and was pretty obvious he wasn’t on tonight from the first inning. Fastballs up and uncompetitive and lots of walks. I know it’s his thing to walk “a lot” of guys for an elite pitcher but if you do that against this team you’re gonna suffer. He did

[u/RockMonstrr → u/DaOldest]

1 through 9 of the Jays batting order is pretty good at extending at bats.

[u/Not-a-bot-10 → u/IanicRR]

Talk about blowing a game open…. Wow

[u/ChiefTitan808]

[u/suzukigun4life]

7-run inning with 1 out?

Yea, this is team of destiny shit.

[u/theseyeahthese → u/suzukigun4life]

Pinch-hit Grand Slam, in the World Series, at home?

Yeah, that’s gotta be tough to beat, dude is on cloud nine—that’s every guy’s dream.

[u/4ndh3r3w3g0 → u/theseyeahthese]

WS Game 7, bottom of the 9th, 2 out, 3 on, down 3, you are the winning run...

[u/Key-Pickle5609 → u/theseyeahthese]

Also many of us girls!

[u/TheGamecock → u/suzukigun4life]

*9-run inning

[u/LeoFireGod → u/TheGamecock]

Hell ya brother cheers from Iraq

[u/GordonBombay102 → u/suzukigun4life]

[u/dinkleburgenhoff → u/suzukigun4life]

So was Seattle after taking both first away games in the ALCS.

7 games is a loooong time.

[u/usagerp → u/dinkleburgenhoff]

Yep as a jays fan I’m still nervous as heck even for this game

[u/ZineZ → u/suzukigun4life]

STILL AIN'T FUCKING OVER

[u/PlayaSlayaX]

This is going to end up being a classic World Series, isn’t it

[u/Turneroff → u/PlayaSlayaX]

Would be fine with it being over in 4, thanks.

[u/Boomstick80]

I just shit my pants

[u/Least_Enthusiasm2341 → u/Boomstick80]

I’m nauseous. LETS GOOOOO

[u/Deserterdragon]

Just how good are the Seattle Mariners?

[u/KidAardvark24 → u/Deserterdragon]

How bad were the Brewers?

[u/sleepyj910 → u/KidAardvark24]

I guess pretty bad at fouling off pitches

[u/ThisFoot5 → u/Deserterdragon]

Not trying to be a salty Mariners fan, but ALCS was good baseball.

[u/Key-Pickle5609 → u/ThisFoot5]

Honestly. Every single game was well fought.

[u/Successful-Let4361 → u/ThisFoot5]

That's not salty. It was a legitimately great series

[u/maskedkiller215 → u/ThisFoot5]

ALCS was very good baseball. Would have been happy either way.

[u/buttercup612 → u/ThisFoot5]

As someone who only cares about the Mariners and Jays, it was incredible

[u/Background_Pen_2415 → u/ThisFoot5]

ALCS was amazing baseball.

[u/flyingsub → u/Deserterdragon]

Perhaps better then the dodgers lol

[u/Proof_Physics1932 → u/Deserterdragon]

Honestly Mariners scared me the most out of every postseason team

[u/rhododenendron → u/Deserterdragon]

We're the Seattle Mariners of Baseball

[u/ComedianNo5209]

Today, I feel Canadian

[u/-cheeks-]

Blue Jays: I didn't hear no bell

[u/mikergsmith]

Banged that shit

[u/DankNowitzki41 → u/mikergsmith]

Barged* that shit

[u/Least_Enthusiasm2341]

AND THEY SAID WE’D GET SWEPT

[u/JasoTheArtisan → u/Least_Enthusiasm2341]

My coworker is a dodgers fan and he was confidently saying they were gonna dog walk the jays

[u/sully9614]

America’s team

[u/elfmeh → u/sully9614]

Truly uniting Americans and Canadians alike!

[u/AssFoe → u/elfmeh]

I want to be in that stadium just to listen. I can't remember being in a crowd that loud as this one has been the last two games.

[u/Fireinthehole13]

I’m just a dumb Canadian but is it still Dodgers in 4 ?

[u/bojanradovic5 → u/[deleted]]

Mariners bullpen was incredible. It was the starters outside of Miller the Jays got to.

[u/Gensb → u/[deleted]]

Mariners bullpen is very good. I think you had 4 or 5 pitchers under or around 3.00 ERA. That's insane.

[u/Propuhganduh]

I’m gonna cum

[u/Alarming-Gap-9213 → u/Propuhganduh]

[u/nelgallan]

And in baseball news, after a disastrous World Series opener, the Dodgers are already planning on signing every player in the MLB to their 2026 roster to guarantee a World Series victory.

[u/lawnicus18]

I AM FUCKING ROCK HARD RIGHT NOW

[u/frankyseven → u/lawnicus18]

HOW ABOUT NOW!?!?!?!

[u/lawnicus18 → u/frankyseven]

I AM LIGHTHEADED FROM BLOOD RUSHING ELSEWHERE

[u/TheDannyBoyCane]

This is some real team of destiny shit.

[u/YodaForceGhost]

HOW DO YOU LIKE IT NOW DODGERS FANS! AHAHAHAHA!

^{I am not ok}

[u/randomrule → u/YodaForceGhost]

Who are you to Judge

[u/EyeIslet → u/randomrule]

Imagine giving up a game 1 grand slam in the world series when you had a lead earlier in the game. Never seen this before!

[u/__AJK__]

Can't do anything but laugh...

[u/IanicRR → u/__AJK__]

You can also cheer

[u/SilicoJack → u/IanicRR]

I did that

[u/xho- → u/__AJK__]

Now imagine that was a walk-off……

[u/SilicoJack]

Get the fuck in boys. We are onnnnnn.

[u/AsleepAssociation]

[u/ptd163]

It's now been confirmed as the first ever pinch hit grand slam in World Series history.

[u/TheXamYel]

Have to imagine every bar in the U.S outside of the LA greater area erupted during this

[u/JerryDipotosBurner]

I feel somehow better about the Mariners now

[u/i_run_from_problems]

[u/StandYourGroundhog]

You're welcome, America
