Dodgers Win World Series

[Leo Morgenstern]

The Blue Jays put up one heck of a fight, but in the end, it wasn't enough.

With Toronto up 4-3 in the top of the ninth, Jeff Hoffman allowed a game-tying home run to Dodgers nine-hole hitter Miguel Rojas. It was hard to watch. Two innings later, Shane Bieber gave up a home run to Will Smith. It was even harder to watch. 

Then, in the bottom of the 11th, in front of 40,000 anxious fans at the Rogers Centre, Alejandro Kirk grounded into a double play. Toronto's magical run was over. The Dodgers had won their second straight World Series title, and all the Blue Jays could do was stare in disbelief. 

This was still a special season for the Blue Jays. A heartbreaking World Series loss doesn't change that. But fans can celebrate all that this team accomplished in due time. For now, no one will blame you for wallowing in defeat.

It sucks but at least Blue Jays has already won 2 championships, it would have hurt alot more if the Blue Jays was trying to win their first championship but it was one hell of a series and I am very proud of the Blue Jays!

I have barely posted this year, i had been very sour on our management, but today i have to say i was mistaken. 

The moment this team they built gave us i will never forget. 

it is so hard for all of us now, but i cant immagine how hard it is for this group of lovable players.

I am over 50 and the last time i had tears was the passing of my father. i thought i can make myself not care about this team but faith had to  remind me how much i care,
