Sorry Dodgers fans but the Blue Jays are schooling the Dodgers

On how to win ball games. Timely hitting, great pitching, and taking advantage of sloppy defense. Game 5 was a clinic. Yes the Dodgers can come back, but it is really hard to see how they win two games in a row in Toronto.

The Blue Jays are playing well, but a 3-2 lead in the World Series is not impossible to overcome. It's been done 5 times.

As a Los Angeles resident, a Dodger win might be nice for the city.

But a Blue Jays win would be good for the country. It would shut that orange idiot's mouth.

Plus, my team wouldn't have to suffer the indignity of meeting him at the White House.

Far, far more damage to this country than he has to Canada. I will never root against the USA because of Trump. I'm glad the Dodgers won.

Teams at this level don’t need any schooling. Where were the Blue Jays last World Series.

Trump hates Los Angeles, too.

The Dodgers could very well win the series.

Baseball is a joke anymore.I'll never see a world championship in my lifetime.Ever, thanks to the differences and payrolls between big cities and small cities?I think small cities should just boycott all games

There’s really no reason for anyone to be banging their penis on the side of the urinal, right? Let’s be worthy of greatness.
