Read More“When Game 5 arrived Wednesday, and the local fans settled in to watch the Dodgers impose familiarity, the Blue Jays took the lead before they could text their agents.
Davis Schneider, the 28th-round draft choice who was signed by John Schneider, the unrelated scout who is now his manager, led off because George Springer is hurt. He wasn’t going to let Blake Snell impose his patterns and build his sequence. He let it rip when he saw the fastball coming, and the ball landed in the leftfield stands, a fan catching Snell’s pitch before catcher Will Smith could. Two pitches later, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (Montreal, Que.) did the same thing. The Blue Jays handed a 2-0 lead to a 22-year-old who, 16 months ago, was pitching East Carolina to an NCAA regional upset of Wake Forest. Trey Yesavage had already faced the Dodgers once, without trauma. This time he struck out 12 of them in seven innings and got 23 swings and misses. “

Read More“Game 3 was like an orphan, or maybe an old CD player left in the yard, for scavengers. Six baserunners were nabbed at second, third or home. The Blue Jays lost a run because home plate Mark Wegner, faced with calling either a ball or a strike on Daulton Varsho, decided to call a ballike or a strall or something in between, and Bo Bichette got picked off because he couldn’t tell.”

There were others, but only 24 hours ago the only question was if the Dodgers’ parade route would be kept secret, the better to frustrate ICE agents. Now that Toronto has thrashed the Dodgers, 11-4, nobody is sure of anything. It’s worth noting that Yoshihuru Yamamoto pitched a complete game last time out, and is working Game Two for the Dodgers, and a team with a lifetime of postseason experiences should have little trouble clearing its head. But it’s more about the Blue Jays, and their unwillingness to serve as the scenery. “
