Blue Jays send a message to the Dodgers and the baseball world with an 11-4 win in Game 1
Description
Guests: Addison Barger, Bo Bichette, Ernie Clement
The Blue Jays not only won the opener of the MLB Fall Classic on Friday, they sent a firm message to the defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers that Toronto is not going to be just another pit stop on their road to a repeat. The fans also sent a firm message to Shohei Ohtani when he came to bat in the ninth inning, chanting, "We don't need you!"
The Jays exploded for the biggest single inning in a World Series game since 1968, scoring nine runs in the sixth.
Bo Bichette, playing for the first time in seven weeks, started that inning with a walk. Ernie Clement gave the Jays the lead with an RBI single three batters later and later still, Addison Barger clubbed the first-ever pinch-hit grand slam in World Series history.
All three Blue Jays join us in Deep Left Field to talk about the big game.
