Toronto was ready for a party. The town was set to pop as the Jays played game seven. Excitement grew as the Jays led most of the game but LA was always close... the knockout punch was never landed. LA clawed back to tie in the ninth...Even still, Jays championship hope were high... bases loaded! One out... Any hit would win and set of celebrations across the nation. But sports don't care about any of that... When opportunity knocks you have to put the opposition away or you it happening to you. And did... The 9th positioned battered who was generally one of the worse batters on the team launched a Bieber pitch over the wall and the Jays couldn't answer. They had their chance in the 9th and squandered it away. SIGH. It was a great run no doubt, but being so close and to not achieve just seems so typically Toronto...It could have been such a story with the very likeable Jays. Ho-hum.
