Could this World Series end any other way? The Dodgers forced a Game 7 with a thrilling 3–1 win over the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre Friday. Toronto nearly pulled off a miraculous ninth-inning comeback when Addison Barger hit a controversial ground-rule double to left-center field after the ball was wedged between the warning track and the padded wall.
The ground-rule double took a run away from the Blue Jays as Myles Straw would have easily scored from first base, but he was put at third with the call. After Barger’s extra-base hit, the Dodgers went to Tyler Glasnow (who was due in the rotation to start Game 7) to work themselves out of the jam with no outs and two runners in scoring position.
