8 Blue Jays and Dodgers who could determine the outcome of the World Series | CBC Sports
"Around 8:10 p.m. ET on Friday, the excitement will have given way to tension the kind that only playoff baseball can provide. Yes, the World Series will return to Canada for the first time in 32 years. That, in itself, is a statement and achievement worth celebrating. But what really made those 1992 and 1993 teams special is that they won it all."
"A guy who could take over the series all on his own, Guerrero Jr. has earned his 14-year, $500 million US contract before it's even begun. Hitting .442 with six homers and 12 runs batted in through two series, Guerrero Jr., who won ALCS MVP, has proven to be an absolute force in these playoffs. Even when he makes an out, it's likely he hit the ball hard."
Around 8:10 p.m. ET on Friday the World Series returns to Canada for the first time in 32 years. The 1992 and 1993 Blue Jays teams won championships, creating lasting expectations. Game 7 of the American League Championship featured George Springer’s instantly iconic three-run home run to overturn a Seattle Mariners lead. The Toronto Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers begin the Fall Classic tied 0-0. Eight players are identified as potential series determinants. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has hit .442 with six homers and 12 RBIs through two series and earned ALCS MVP. The Dodgers rely heavily on starting pitching and strikeouts, and Shohei Ohtani’s presence looms large.
