Blue Jays fans were already hyped for the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, but Toronto really has its eyes on the prize now after the Jays pounded the Dodgers 11-4 in Game 1.

Toronto

The Toronto Blue Jays opened the World Series with a commanding 11-4 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. This marks the Blue Jays' first World Series appearance in 32 years, and they made a strong impression by defeating the defending champions.

Key moments included three home runs from the Blue Jays, highlighted by a pinch-hit grand slam from Addison Barger and a two-run shot by Alejandro Kirk. Despite a two-run home run from Dodgers superstar Shohei Otani, the Jays' offense proved too strong. The victory gives Toronto a 1-0 lead in the series, capping a remarkable turnaround from finishing last in their division the previous season.

Blue Jays blow out Dodgers in World Series Game 1

The Toronto Blue Jays have won the first game in a very big way, beating the Los Angeles Dodgers 11-4. First time in the World Series in 32 years, pretty good start. Many consider the Jays the underdogs in this series and they came to win tonight, showing they are a force to be reckoned with, absolutely dominating the Dodgers. So Thomas Degg is inside the Rogers Centre. What a game that was, my friend. Oh yeah, could you have expected a better result from the Blue Jays? This is what they've been doing all season, putting the ball in play multiple ways. Three homers tonight from the Jays didn't hurt as well in making a big statement tonight against the defending World Series champions. Looking to put luck on their side, the Blue Jays called on Cito Gaston to kick off the festivities. The manager who won it all with Toronto twice, returning 32 years later. Fans waiting three agonizing decades to again feel the thrill of this moment. One by one, we got this. I have a good feeling about it though, I think we're gonna take it. Gates opened extra early as that blue wave came flooding in. Canadians from all over. Came from Halifax. A lot of Newfoundlanders here tonight, which we love. Here to witness the World Series and a win. I'm feeling good, I think we're Jays in six. What's your expectation for the World Series? Wait a minute, Dodgers cap. Bro, Dodgers in five. Jays in six, Jays in six. Dodgers in five all the way. Jays in six. Jeered by Toronto fans, Dodgers superstar Shohei Otani leading off for LA. Facing rookie Treya Savage. Who struck him out swinging. Within minutes, Bichette's bat roaring back to life in case there was any doubt. First and second one out. The Dodgers in the second, quick to remind everyone why they're the defending champions. Oscar Hernandez is on his way home. Sending home former Blue Jay Teoscar Hernandez for the first run of the game. But wait a minute. This is well hit. Fourth inning, Alejandro Kirk gets the offense going for the Jays. Here's Varsho who flied out to center with the bases loaded. Followed up by Dalton Varsho and this. And he hits a ball hard to center field. A two-run blast to tie up the game. Fast forward, bases loaded for Toronto's Addison Barger in the sixth. And he blows the game wide open. A pinch hit grand slam. The dome may be closed but that one set the roof on fire. And Alejandro Kirk for the Blue Jays. Following up with his own two-run shot here at Rogers Center. 11 to 4. Once again, the final four. The Blue Jays, an extraordinary result for a team that finished last place in their own division last season and fought all the way to the top of the American League standings this season. And now are up one game to none against the defending champion LA Dodgers. A couple notes about Dodgers superstar Shohei Otani. First of all, he hit a two-run home run so the Jays were not able to neutralize him entirely here. But that didn't matter in the final result. I asked Otani about facing the Jays and what challenge that would be when he spoke to reporters yesterday. And he said that the biggest challenge is that the Jays are coming into this with more momentum than the Dodgers. And indeed, looking ahead to Saturday night game two, the Jays have all the momentum in the world now, Adrian.
