The Toronto Blue Jays are one win away from their third World Series title.
After losing a tough, 18-inning marathon to the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 3, the Blue Jays bounced back with two-straight victories in Games 4 and 5 to take control of the series. Now, the series heads back to Toronto with the Dodgers needing to win two consecutive games on the road to secure their back-to-back.
Game 6 promises to be great matchup. with both teams’ aces set to take the hill. Los Angeles will start Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who is coming of an impressive complete game victory in Game 2 of the series, while Toronto will counter with Game 2’s loser, Kevin Gausman.
However, Gausman has produced to a 2.55 ERA in the playoffs this year, throwing at least 5.2 innings in his for starts before Friday’s game. Yamamoto, however, has had a dominant playoffs with a 1.57 ERA and two-straight complete games, allowing just four runs in 47.1 innings.
The Blue Jays were MLB’s second-best team at home this year, sporting a 54-27 record, but they are just 4-4 in eight home games so far in the postseason. The Dodgers, though, were just 41-40 on the road in 2025 but are 5-1 as the road team in the playoffs.
For Los Angeles to tie the series, it will need the offense to come to life, as the team has scored three runs in its last two games combined. Mookie Betts specifically has struggled, while the bottom of the Dodgers’ lineup has been ice cold all series. Toronto, on the other hand, will try to keep up its hot hitting, having scored at least five runs in for of the previous five games.
