"It's been 32 years since the Toronto Blue Jays were this close to a World Series championship and the city of Toronto - as well as all of Canada - is ready to get Game 6 going at Rogers Centre. The excitement has already hit a fever pitch, hours before first pitch of the game."
"To say people are excited, that's an understatement. I just talked by the Roger Center and saw at least a 1000 people lined up to get inside. Gates don't open till this afternoon. Game 6 is going to be loud!- Kevin Pillar (@KPILLAR4) October 31, 2025"
"It's a big statement from a former player who played on a huge stage in this very city. Pillar was a part of the Blue Jays last great MLB postseason runs in 2015 and 2016. He was the starting center fielder for both of those seasons where the Blue Jays reached the American League Championship Series in back to back years. However, Pillar and company never managed to get past that round and ultimately came up short. Now, as an analyst, he has a chance to watch his former team win their first championship in three decades on the very same field where he made dozens of highlight reel plays."
The Toronto Blue Jays are one win away from a World Series championship, their first in 32 years. Fans across Toronto and Canada have gathered in large numbers outside Rogers Centre hours before Game 6, with long lines forming despite gates opening later. Former Blue Jays outfielder Kevin Pillar noted the intense anticipation and predicted a loud atmosphere. Pillar played center field during the club's deep postseason runs in 2015 and 2016 and now covers the series as an analyst. The franchise previously won World Series titles in 1992 and 1993, with Game 6 wins in those championships.
