Pretty cool timing on the photo

I hope so!

I really enjoyed watching the game with the kiddo last night. He's not really into sports and is a different sort of kid, but he was into it. He even asked if there was another game tonight. He's back with his mom for the weekend so we won't be able to watch the rest of the series together, unfortunately.

My guess was a combination of nerves and lack of sleep. Obviously Snell has been around a while now, he’s not a rookie, but even vets get butterflies in big games. Big bags under his eyes. Maybe we find out later we got sick with something as well, who knows. He pitched a gem in the NLCS so if he picked up a virus or something it had to be recent.
 
So, are the Blue Jays winning the World Series tonight in Toronto??? :hyper:

I am fascinated to see how Yamamoto pitches tonight and how the Jays adapt compared to Game #2. There's no reason to expect Yamamoto not to pitch well. His last two starts in the World Series and NLCS were very, very good. Those were not elimination games though. Assuming he's making pitches more or less as well as the last game, how can the Blue Jays hitters change their approach to get more hits off of him?

You've gotta figure the Dodgers' hitters will give it everything they have tonight. Gausman will need to be sharp. I wonder if Betts can finally get out of his slump. LA kinda needs him to. Unless Dave Roberts moves him even further down the batting order??

The dream scenario would be a 3-up-3-down top of the 1st for Gausman, and then the Jays' hitters do some damage against Yamamoto immediately. Get an early lead and then build from there.

Let's go Blue Jays!
