Toronto Blue Jays Win First World Series Game In 32 Years With 11-4 Victory Over Dodgers

The Toronto Blue Jays returned to the World Series for the first time since 1993, delivering an emphatic 11-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1. A historic sixth inning saw the Blue Jays score nine runs, highlighted by Addison Barger's pinch-hit grand slam, the first ever in World Series history, and two-run homers from Daulton Varsho and Alejandro Kirk, who also collected three hits in the game. Rookie pitcher Trey Yesavage held the Dodgers to two earned runs over four innings, while the Dodgers' Blake Snell struggled, allowing five earned runs in just over five innings. The Blue Jays' offense, the highest scoring in the postseason, demonstrated resilience and teamwork, reigniting Toronto's passion for baseball after decades of disappointment. Bo Bichette returned to the lineup after a seven-week absence, contributing with a hit and a walk. The series continues with Games 2 through 4 scheduled at Rogers Centre and Dodger Stadium respectively, as Toronto looks to build on their promising start.
