Blue Jays Surge to World Series with Historic Game 7 Win

BREAKING NEWS: The Toronto Blue Jays have made history, advancing to the World Series for the first time since July 15, 1993, after a thrilling 4-3 victory over the Seattle Mariners in Game 7 of the American League Championship Series on Monday night.

In a dramatic seventh inning, George Springer launched a pivotal three-run homer, marking the first go-ahead homer in Game 7 history for a team trailing by multiple runs at that stage. This monumental hit not only propelled the Blue Jays into the championship series but also electrified fans across Canada.

As the season’s tension reached its peak, the Blue Jays’ bullpen took charge, shutting down the Mariners and securing the final six outs. Closer Jeff Hoffman emphasized his focus post-game, stating,
