I am elated. The Toronto Blue Jays are one win away from capturing their third World Series crown. Best of all, they could win it right here in Toronto. They are on the cusp of victory., a victory that would be celebrated throughout Canada, from sea to sea. During these difficult times, Canadians could sure use a boost.
I have memories of 1992 and 1993, but many Blue Jay fans are too young to remember those unforgettable glory days. Younger Canadians are enjoying the ride and I hope they will also be able to enjoy the sweet taste of a World Series victory.
This team is likeable and resilient. They've been underestimated, but they've always come through when it counted. They appear to be a team of destiny. Let them body shame Alejandro Kirk and Vladdy. I would rather have them playing on my team than Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani.
I also can't say enough about Addison Barger. George Springer, Ernie Clement, Bo Bichette and the others. As for Trey Yesavage, he's been unbelievable. His meteoric rise from the minors to World Series stardom is unprecedented. He's a very cool and composed 22-year-od sensation.
Having said all that, I remain cautiously optimistic. The Jays still have to win one more game, and anything can happen in sports. It will be a Halloween to remember or we will have to play a seventh and deciding game on All Saints Day.
Go Jays go! Bring it home!
