The partner that the Los Angeles Dodgers will fight in the World Series is the Toronto Blue Jays.

Toronto is the AL champion. Toronto advanced to the much-awaited World Series with a 4-3 come-from-behind victory over the Seattle Mariners in Game 7 of the ALCS at Rogers Center on the 21st (Korea time).

Toronto, which passed the series with 4 wins and 3 losses, will play the best-of-seven World Series against the Dodgers, who are aiming for the second consecutive year with the NL Champ. The home advantage is held by Toronto, which has a high regular season winning rate, so Games 1, 2, 6, and 7 will be held at Rogers Center and Games 3, 4 and 5 will be held at Dodger Stadium.




Toronto will be able to knock again at the top of the World Series for the first time in 32 years since winning the back-to-back championship between 1992 and 1993. Seattle, on the other hand, sought to advance to the World Series for the first time since its foundation in 1977, but ended up being frustrated.

Toronto and Seattle continued their neck-and-neck race from the first inning with an all-out fight like the final game.

Seattle scored the first run in the top of the first inning when leading Julio Rodriguez got on base with a double running through the left line and then homered with Josh Naylor's right-handed hit after one out.




However, Toronto tied the score immediately in the bottom of the first inning. When the lead George Springer walked to the base, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit a left-handed hit to provide a chance for the first and second bases. Dalton Basho, who entered the batter's box after two outs, hit a heavy hit and Springer homered to make it 1-1.

However, Seattle took a 2-1 lead in the third inning when leading hitter Rodriguez hit a solo home run. Rodriguez pulled Toronto starter Shane Bieber's 84.8-mile slider that flowed outside of the seventh pitch, sending it well over the right-center fence. Rodriguez's fourth home run of the postseason, with an angle of 23 degrees, a batting speed of 108.6 miles and a flying distance of 423 feet.

In the top of the fifth inning, leadoff hitter Carl Raleigh shot a solo shot to widen the gap to 3-1. Rowley, who entered the left at-bat, pulled Toronto right-hander Lewis Balland's second 93.8-mile changeup into the middle and crossed the right fence. The ball, which flew at a launch angle of 35 degrees and 102.1 miles, fell toward the away team's Seattle bullpen and the bullpen catcher caught it. Raleigh's fifth home run this fall at 381 feet.

Seattle struck out George Springer with a swing and miss after second pitcher Brian Wu walked lead Andres Jimenez in the bottom of the fifth inning, caught Nathan Roakes with a shortstop double play and quickly closed the inning to block Toronto's pursuit flow. As if to counter this, Toronto put Kevin Gausman, the starting ace, in the top of the seventh inning. Gausman gave up three walks, but kept a two-run gap by blocking without allowing a run.

In the end, Toronto succeeded in turning the tide in the bottom of the seventh inning. Leader Addison Barger won Bolne and began to shake the right hand. Isaiah Kiner-Falefa then hit a heavy hit and Jimenez hit a sacrifice bunt with one out on the second and third bases.

Seattle then replaced the pitcher with right-hander Eduardo Bazardo. Then, the next batter, Springer, fired a three-run shot over the left fence to turn the game around 4-3. Springer pulled Bazardo's second 96-mile body sinker on a one-ball and crossed the left-center fence. The parabolic ball flew at a launch angle of 30 degrees and 99.1 miles slightly over the left fence. Springer's fourth home run of the postseason with a driving distance of 381 feet.

Toronto, which succeeded in turning the tables, deployed another starting agent, Chris Bassett, in the eighth inning to block it with a three-way exit.
