The only thing more electritying than last night victory is a Game 7 during MLB playoffs! Well, also the Electric Torpedo IPA by Sierra Nevada... damn, it's good. It's so good that I'll need to search for it after work and get a 6 pak of it for Game 7 where Blue Jays will win and face Dodgers in the World Series.

Blue Jays -132
1.32/1.00


Ok, I can't wait until after work, gonna look for it during lunch.

:cheers:

Maybe some suits in a big fancy boardroom wish the Yankees were playing the Red Sox in the ALCS. Or whatever massive-market, legacy matchup you can imagine. But for the objective observer, this Blue Jays-Mariners series absolutely rips. Consider:
  • These are two teams with zero modern connection to playoff success. Toronto played in two straight LCS a decade ago and lost both times, and it last saw the World Series in 1993. There is history, but not familiarity with this station.

  • The Mariners, founded in 1977, have never been to a World Series. They’ve made the LCS just three times in franchise history before this season, never winning more than two games.

  • What does that mean? Tensions are high. Stands are packed. With every home run — and there have been many — you can feel the joy, the fervor, the angst from every fan in attendance. It is the essence of what binds us to sports.
Which is why we deserved seven games in this series. Down 3-2, Toronto’s dominant 6-2 win in Game 6 last night was gritty. Trey Yesavage, the wunderkind prospect, was brilliant. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. might be the most terrifying hitter in this entire postseason.

What an electrifying game 7! If you missed the game, here’s the recap:

Borado threw the pitch and said, “OH NO!”

He stood there as Springer hit the 3 run dinger!

That hit was the series ending game winner!

10/20: 1-0 (+1.00)
Tab: 24-22 (+2.33)


Springer is my hero!

Another win! :cheers:
