2025 World Series: John Schnieder Loved Passion From Blue Jays Fans With Shohei Ohtani Chant
"They have been waiting a long time for a World Series to come back here. I hope that they're just as loud, if not louder, tomorrow. It's not very often you get a feeling like we had in Game 7 or tonight in the sixth inning. You can't take it for granted. This is a special place to play. Everyone here in this city here, in this building, and across the country, we feel it for sure. Again, it's nice, but you got to get ready for tomorrow."
"I just wanted to get the third out. I love energetic fanbases. It happens in different ways and shapes and forms in every stadium. We saw it just the last series in Seattle. Kind of heard it, but it's tough to talk about a player like that, to be honest with you. He's special. I'm glad that the home run that he hit came when it came and we had a little cushion. But I love that our fans are passionate about our team."
The Toronto Blue Jays won Game 1 of the 2025 World Series 11-4 over the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers missed early offensive opportunities and experienced a pitching collapse, surrendering nine runs in the sixth inning. Rogers Centre hosted 44,353 fans who created an electric, loud atmosphere that energized the Blue Jays and rattled the visiting team. Fans displayed taunts, including a sign targeting the Dodgers bullpen and a "we don't need you" chant during Shohei Ohtani's final plate appearance before his walk. Blue Jays manager John Schneider praised the passionate crowd and emphasized preparation for the next game.
