With travel day on Thursday, give Springer a chance to heal up. Man, this is turning out better than expected.

Great team effort to win game 4!
Bieber pitched well. Vlady got the offence started with a 2 run home run.
Hits from Bichette, Clement, Giminez, Varsho, and Barger in the seventh inning.
Yesavage pitches in game 5.
Let’s go!!!

Actually it's more like seeing the grip on the baseball by pitcher, then signalling the batter which pitch to get ready for. Pitch instructions by catcher to pitcher is all done electronically via transmitter nowadays. No finger signals. I believe up to two transmitters and four receivers are allowed by a team. Pitcher, catcher, first baseman and outfielders (usually) They put the stuff in their caps.
I can't remember which game it was, but Vladdy yelled for his pitcher to move his body over a bit, so runner on second couldn't see the pitch setup.

MLB fans taking notice of how special this team really is. Deja Vu to the time Vancouver Whitecaps beat the New York Cosmo for the NASL championship. Broadcasters: This is a team from the “Village” of Vancouver.

No matter what happens it's great to see that this series will 100% end in Toronto.
The organization must pat themselves on the back for pulling out the bank to extend Vladdy, ballsy bet that paid off massively.

Yeah I wasn't a huge fan of Vladdys contract but he's definitely showing his worth down the stretch here. Hopefully they can pull this off cause you never know when you'll get back to another World Series (unless you're the Dodgers).

Those regular season numbers need to get better to truly payoff or fans are gonna turn on Vladdy in 6-7 years.

^ they say that ohtani's $700M over 10 yrs contract already paid itself off last year when they won the WS. So it's all icing on the cake from 2nd yr and on.

All my friends and family in LA have become Dodgers fans, and I have even seen Dodgers hats in Hong Kong now. There is a car I have seen a few times that has a full LA Dodgers vinyl wrap 
It's CRAZY how big of a deal he has become worldwide. MLB itself will benefit from him, not just the team, who have definitely gotten their money's worth, regardless of the championship last year and possible repeat. He is a true phenom

Full credit for Yesavage raising his game tonight.
12Ks!! A rookie who played less than 5 games in the regular season gets twelve strike outs in a World Series game!
A 22 year old pitcher who is playing lights out.

Seranthony Dominguez has been having issues. Is there anyone else they can put in? Maybe Yesavage can go a little deeper. 100 pitches already. Yikes!

I think the Vancouver Canadians games are going to be very popular come next season.

This World Series is what MLB needed. People calling baseball boring. Are you kidding me?
The way the Blue Jays play the game. You get to see that it's more tha just blindly swinging at some little ball. You see the base coaches and how they have a hand in every play. The game is like a chess match. The decisions and matchups by managers and coaches (pitching and hitting) knowing each player's capabilities. Not sure who said it. They (Dodgers) have great players, but we have a great team.
What a season, though. Jays weren't on anybody's radar at the start of the season. After the All Star Break, the team just went full on Jekyll and Hyde. Fuck the Rays, fuck the Orioles, fuck the Yankees............ what a feeling. https://www.reddit.com/r/Torontobluejays/s/8qUMGLaH5c
