The Los Angeles Dodgers secured a thrilling victory against the Toronto Blue Jays on Halloween night, forcing the World Series to a decisive seventh game. The Dodgers triumphed 3-1 in Game 6, with reliever Tyler Glasnow achieving a clutch save by getting the final three outs on just three pitches, all while the potential series-winning run stood at the plate.
The game took place at the Rogers Centre in Toronto, where Yoshinobu Yamamoto delivered a strong performance, pitching six innings and allowing only one run. After trailing 3-2 in the series, the Dodgers needed a win to stay alive, and they delivered under pressure.
In the bottom of the ninth inning, with the Blue Jays threatening, Glasnow was called from the bullpen after Roki Sasaki had thrown 33 pitches, leaving runners on second and third base. On his very first pitch, Glasnow induced a pop-out from Ernie Clement, setting the stage for a dramatic finish.
With two runners in scoring position and the World Series title on the line, Glasnow faced Andres Gimenez, who hit a drive to shallow left field. Kiké Hernández made the catch and executed a perfect throw to second base, completing a game-ending double play and sealing the Dodgers’ victory.
The series will conclude in Game 7, scheduled for 5 p.m. on November 1, 2023, also at the Rogers Centre. Veteran pitcher Max Scherzer is expected to take the mound for the Dodgers, who will aim to secure their championship title in what promises to be an exciting final showdown.
Fans can tune in to watch the decisive game, which will be broadcast on Fox. As the teams prepare for this ultimate clash, the intensity of the World Series has reached a boiling point, with both sides eager to claim the coveted trophy.
