I hate in-game dugout interviews, which I presume is the kind of thing that tickles the hearts of casual fans. Grrrr

Same.  During the all star game, fine.  Maybe in between half innings during a regular season game.  But not in the middle of playoff action.

So just like pretty much every other Canadian, I'm pulling for a Jays victory in this series.   I'm just curious  who the American posters of this  board are rooting for.  Are you guys pulling for Toronto?  or LA?   Or do you guys care either way?

Just curious!

A compelling game 5, 6, and 7.

I'm 100% for Toronto. They appear to be a team of destiny. The Dodgers have big player names but if a team gets hot for a week, they can be beat.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. walks. Addison Barger scores. Andrés Giménez to 2nd. Passed ball by catcher Will Smith. 4-1 Jays

It should have been ruled a wild pitch. The catcher didn't stand a chance at that 100 MPH pitch. Maybe it'll get changed...

Tonight Yasavage became just the second rookie pitcher (after Don Newcombe in 1949) to throw 11 strikeouts in a World Series game. He’s also the second-youngest pitcher (after Smoky Joe Wood in 1912) to do this.

He’s also also the first rookie pitcher in WS history to strike out five consecutive batters.

And he’s broken Newcombe’s record with 12. Some kinda night for the kid.

That 18 inning loss for Toronto wasn't a crushing loss. It was an uplifting loss.

Momentum is as good as the next day's starting pitcher.

It would be wrong to root for more runs. It would be like dancing on someone’s grave. But if the Blue Jays score more runs in the top of the ninth, I won’t celebrate, but I won’t hang my head either.

Guess this is not a moral dilemma I have to face.
