What a season. What a World Series. One of the best I've ever seen. Thank you, #BlueJays.

I'm exhausted. All the emotions, the ups & downs. It's draining, man. Dunno if I'll make to the end of this one... #BlueJays

I want an Ernie Clement bobblehead next year. #BlueJays, do it. I need that in my collection.

What a performance by Scherzer. Quite possibly his very last in the MLB. I had serious doubts when they signed him but I'm glad they did. He brought experience and leadership to this #BlueJays team. 👏

Never seen the benches clear in a World Series game. Never. In 40+ years. Wow. This is a first. #BlueJays

Wow. Great work by the offense. And so much respect for Bichette and Georgie who are obviously injured and hurting yet are playing as if their lives depended on this one game. They're on a mission. Remarkable. 👏 #BlueJays

Well, I predicted it would end in 7 games. Here we are. One way or another, there'll be tears at the Rogers Centre tonight : tears of joy or sadness. It was fun to follow the #BlueJays this year and whatever the outcome of the game is please stay classy. Just be grateful for the rollercoaster ride.

Final : 3-1. One bad inning. One last try. Game 7 in a few hours. #BlueJays

Wow. Incredible 1st inning for Gausy. Hope the rest of his outing will be as strong. 🙏👏 #BlueJays

Ok. Here we go... Gausman's there. Georgie too. Very fine lineup. I like it. Could end tonight. And I believe it will. #BlueJays

Like Joe Carter's walk-off home run, we'll be talking about Trey Yesavage's Game 5 performance 30 years from now. It was pure poetry. #BlueJays

Final : 6-1. Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Truly amazing Yesavage performance. Good work by the offense. This team is something special. Impressive beyond words. One. More. Win. It could happen in Toronto next Friday. #BlueJays

Masterful Yeasavage outing. The future is bright for this kid. 👏 #BlueJays

Wow. This is a totally transformed team. Has nothing to do with last year's lineup who struggled with RISP, small ball and power. Gotta give credit to David Popkins. I believe he's the main reason of the team's offensive success this season. #BlueJays

Thinking about José Berríos. I'm sure he would've loved to play in the postseason and World Series. Sure he's watching all this at home and is extremely disappointed. #BlueJays

Ok. Here we go... The Kid vs Snell. Final away game of the season. Don't like the fact that Georgie's still not in the lineup, but hey, it worked yesterday, might also work today. 🙏 #BlueJays

This team is unbelievable. I had doubts at some point during the season. But no more. This team is elite. Only an elite team can be competitive against the Dodgers. #BlueJays

Why do all these female singers feel the need to sound like Mariah Carey when they sing the National Anthem? Sweet Jesus. 🙄 Can't wait to hear Rufus Wainwright's rendition of O Canada tomorrow. Love the guy. I'm sure he'll keep it classy. #BlueJays
