In a heart-stopping Game 7 that’ll go down in baseball history, the Toronto Blue Jays just punched their ticket to the World Series with a dramatic 4-3 victory over the Seattle Mariners.

George Springer became the absolute hero of the night, launching a three-run homer in the seventh inning that sent 44,770 fans into pure pandemonium. This wasn’t just any home run - it was a piece of postseason magic that broke records and crushed Seattle’s dreams.

The Moment That Changed Everything

With the Mariners leading 3-1 and seemingly cruising towards their first-ever World Series appearance, Springer stepped up and absolutely demolished that baseball. His 381-foot rocket to left field not only gave Toronto the lead but made MLB history as the first go-ahead homer in Game 7 when trailing by multiple runs in the late innings.

A National Celebration

This victory means more than just a baseball win - it’s a moment of national pride. Blue Jays chairman Edward Rogers called it “an inspiration for 41 million people in Canada, from coast to coast to coast”. Vladimir Guerrero Jr., named ALCS MVP, was already looking ahead: “The job’s not finished. We got four more to go”.

Breaking the Curse

The Blue Jays haven’t seen the World Series since 1993, making this victory even sweeter. They’ll face the Los Angeles Dodgers, with Game 1 set to bring some serious baseball drama to Canada. For the Mariners? They remain the only major league club without a pennant - a painful reminder of what could have been.
