He got jiggy with that ball.

You might say that's a better smack than some Will Smiths can manage.

Yamamoto. Ice-cold. What a series.

Incredible World Series. 

All time pitching performance from Yamamoto this series. Unreal.

[NikoBaltimore]

Damn, we really wanted the Jays to win so this sucks. But motherfucker what a World Series. 

[Cobra Commander]

probably sucks for the Jays to lose in extras twice in games where they had multi-run leads (leading 4-2 in game 3 before allowing an RBI double and HR to Ohtani; and leading 3-0 and 4-2 tonight)

[SirFozzie]

Instead of Yamamoto never having to buy a drink in LA again, how about Magic sends him some 100 year aged sake or something?

[odessasteps]

Can’t remember when I was more disappointed in correctly predicting the postseason champion.

[Contentious C]

Also, the "G7 team always beats the sweep team" jinx is out the window.

[SirFozzie]

Never mind Revenue sharing, we need Will Smith Sharing.

 

Each of the last six World Series champions has had a "Will Smith" on their active roster:

also the Cubs are no longer the only team to win a game 7 in extra innings on the road

[Dolfan in NYC]

Will Smith (???) now has 6 rings. 

The cool part?  He's got them in the last 6 World Series.

Can we have the Jays and Dodgers come back and play a new best of Seven?

 

Just more baseball please...

 

[Craig H]

Aside from 2016, and that may even be no bias reasons, that is probably the second best World Series I watched and I could only listen to 90% of game 7.

Yeah, no kidding.  I might have been bummed about the Jays losing but while my wife was wildly upset about it I just sat there mesmerized at what I saw.  Talking with those I know the general consensus was it was one of the better World Series we saw by a country mile and they even let my nephews stay up to watch it.  I can't wait to watch at least the highlights but I adored it all.

Also, I am very, very cool with the Dodgers and have a newfound admiration for Yamamoto so he absolutely deserves being WS MVP.

Since it’s presently a post WS party
