The Toronto Blue Jays lost the first game of the American League Championship series to the Seattle Mariners, but the contest is just getting started.

Toronto

The Toronto Blue Jays were defeated by the Seattle Mariners in the opening game of the American League Championship Series at Rogers Centre. The Blue Jays started strong with a home run from George Springer on the first pitch, but their offense stalled, managing only two hits throughout the game.

Seattle's Cal Raleigh tied the game with a home run in the sixth inning, and the Mariners took the lead shortly after, ultimately winning 3-1. Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who had performed well in the previous series, went hitless in this game. The series continues in Toronto, with the Mariners holding a 1-0 advantage in the best-of-seven matchup.

Thomas D'Agla is inside Rogers Centre and Thomas, it all started so well. Yeah, the Jays looked really good in the first inning, but then their bats went cold. They did not look like the high-flying Blue Jays who crushed the Yankees in the American League Division Series. But as you say, it is a best of seven, a longer series this time, and it's just getting started. Fans, your 2025 turn. Call it a deep blue sea of fans. 44,000 primed for their Canadian team to win the American League pennant. How far do you think the Jays can go? Of course, they can get the World Series. This is pretty exciting because I was his age the last time they won the World Series. Let's go Blue Jays! Baseball's not always a Thanksgiving tradition. But so far in the playoffs, the Blue Jays are cooking. Seattle's good, but the Jays are better. I'd say Jays in six. Toronto now hosting West Coast rivals with their own Canadian fan base. Some even daring to wear Mariner's green this far from Seattle. Seize the moment, baby! Let's go, M's! What's your message to fans in British Columbia who might have a soft spot for the Mariners? Fans in British Columbia, I hope, are Blue J fans before they're Seattle fans. I think we feel that. You know, I think we feel that when we do travel there, too. So I guess my message is try to get some tickets and meet us out there. And how about this for the first pitch thrown to the Jays? George Springer hits it out of the park and sending fans dancing downtown. Sixth inning and Seattle's Cal Raleigh responds, delivering his own homer. It's the big dumper when the Mariners need it most. And tying up the game. The Mariners would take the lead. And the Mariners have the lead. And never look back. Three to one, the final for the Seattle Mariners here at Rogers Center. Listen to these stats. The Jays got exactly two hits. Vladimir Guerrero, Jr., who was so hot in the American League Division Series crushing the Yankees, he got no hits. Oh, for four. But it is a best of seven. You need four wins to advance to the World Series. Game two goes here in Toronto Monday evening in. Thomas Dagler in Toronto tonight.
