George Springer's home run was the defining moment of Blue Jays' season... so far

"I was fortunate to get my hands on a Game 7 ticket when they first went on sale. Admittedly, my faith wavered at points during the series, especially when the Toronto Blue Jays were down 2-0 and the debacle that was the eighth inning in Game 5. Thankfully, I held on to the ticket, and I can say that it was the best experience of my life. Here's what it felt like at the ball park."

"With Bryan Woo pitching, Addison Barger earned a five-pitch walk to put a base runner on. While it was a good start, this scenario had happened throughout the game. Things picked up when Isiah Kiner-Falefa hit a 0-2 pitch up the middle, giving the Jays their first runner in scoring position since the first inning. Andrés Giménez then laid down a great sacrifice bunt, moving the runners to second and third."

George Springer’s three-run home run ignited a late rally and produced an unforgettable Game 7 atmosphere at Rogers Centre. The Blue Jays fell behind early and had wavering momentum after a disastrous eighth inning in Game 5. In Game 7, the Mariners scored first and added runs in the third and on a Cal Raleigh homer in the fifth. The Blue Jays frequently reached first base across several innings but failed to advance runners. The bottom of the seventh featured an Addison Barger walk, an Isiah Kiner-Falefa 0-2 single, and an Andrés Giménez sacrifice bunt, a pitching change to Eduard Bazardo, and a roaring crowd.
