Just one more win.
After Wednesday’s 6-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 5 of the World Series, fans of the Toronto Blue Jays are hoping the team will haunt the Dodgers and clinch their first Commissioner’s Trophy in 32 years in Game 6 on Friday night.

With a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series, the World Series returns to Rogers Centre and that means that for just the second time in Major League Baseball’s more-than-a-century old history, the Commissioner’s Trophy will be handed out in Canada.
Toronto split its first two home games of the series against the Dodgers; the Jays lost Game 3 6-5 after 18 innings, but locked in for back-to-back road wins ahead of their return home.
The Jays haven’t won a World Series since 1993, when the team won its second of back-to-back championships.
The Jays have only appeared in the World Series twice before this post-season run – and both appearances ended in Game 6. If necessary, Game 7 would take place Saturday.
“The @BlueJays have never lost a #WorldSeries,” wrote X user @progright Thursday morning.
“Let’s go JAYS! Game 6 in the 6!! One more!!” added X user @techiespringz.
First pitch for Game 6 is set for 8 p.m. Eastern Friday in Toronto.
