For the first time since 1993, the Blue Jays are World Series bound. It was an emotional evening at the Rogers Centre, as fans in Toronto packed the stadium to cheer on their team in Game 7 of the ALCS against the Mariners.
After Jeff Hoffman struck out Julio Rodriguez to seal the 4–3 victory, the city breathed a collective sigh of relief and immediately commenced its celebration. Players on the field were overcome with emotion, perhaps none more so than Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who broke down into tears of joy after the final out was recorded.
