The Jays will now look to win one more game to hoist the Commissioner’s Trophy in front of a sold-out crowd at Rogers Centre and millions of fans watching across Canada on Friday, with Game 7 set for Saturday if necessary.
Jays superfan Justin Pang says the team’s playoff run “brings the country together at a perfect time,” especially amid tensions with the U.S.
Meanwhile, fellow fan Fay Dietrich says she’s been rooting for the Jays since their 1977 debut, and winning it all in Toronto would be “an uproar.”
The Jays haven’t won a World Series since 1993, when the team won its second of back-to-back championships.
First pitch for Game 6 is set for 8 p.m. on Friday.
