Somebody is going to go back to Toronto tonight, one victory away from the World Series. And the other team will be going back to Toronto tonight, teetering on the edge of elimination and needing to win out the rest of the way. Game 5’s are pretty damn pivotal when the first four have been […]

Game Five GameThread: Jays @ Dodgers

Just Win. The lineup, sans Springer. I was hopeful he’d be able to play. He could pinch hit or pinch run, but I’d say pinch hitting is far more likely. Davis Schneider leads off and plays left field against the lefty. Schneider is 1 for 10 in the ALCS and World Series. But Barger stays […]
