Blue Jays fans desperate for Game 7 triumph with spot in World Series on the line | CBC News
"Compared to the sombre mood after a Game 1 loss a week earlier, Rogers Centre was ablaze Sunday night with ecstatic fans singing, cheering and chanting, Let's go Blue Jays! The Jays dominated the Seattle Mariners 6-2 in Game 6 of the ALCS, and now pitcher Shane Bieber starts for Game 7 with a spot in the World Series on the line."
"After a huge win in Game 6 fans were celebrating the efforts of the entire team, but especially rookie pitcher Trey Yesavage for his second start in a postseason game and sixth career start in the league. Vladdy's the best, Yesavage was amazing, we can't wait to be back tomorrow night, said fan Jacob Benarroch after Sunday's game. Time for the World Series in Toronto, baby!"
"For his 11-year-old son Adam, the standout moment of the game was a speedy double play by Yesavage, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Andres Gimenez to take out two runners while bases were loaded in the top of the third inning. Online fans called Yesavage a critical player to the Jays' postseason victories with a start they wouldn't forget for years to come. Trey Yesavage still has his entire rookie season ahead of him."
Toronto Blue Jays moved within one victory of the World Series after a 6-2 win over the Seattle Mariners in Game 6 of the ALCS. Game 7 will be a winner-take-all Monday night at Rogers Centre, with Shane Bieber starting and action slated to begin at 8:08 p.m. Fans at the stadium were ecstatic, chanting and celebrating after a sombre start to the series. Rookie pitcher Trey Yesavage received heavy praise for his second postseason start and a pivotal double play with Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Andres Gimenez in the third inning. Guerrero tied the franchise postseason home run record with six homers.
