Tue Oct 21 00:00:00 UTC 2025: Blue Jays Force Game 7 After Clutch Win Against Mariners
TORONTO – The Toronto Blue Jays kept their World Series hopes alive Sunday night, defeating the Seattle Mariners 6-2 in Game 6 of the American League Championship Series. The victory forces a decisive Game 7 on Monday, with the winner earning a trip to the World Series to face the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Toronto’s offense proved too much for Seattle, putting pressure on the Mariners’ defense, which crumbled with costly errors. While the Mariners hold a slight edge with a rested Andrés Muñoz in the bullpen, Toronto will rely on starting pitcher Shane Bieber, who had a strong outing against Seattle in Game 3.
The winner-take-all Game 7 is set to be a tense battle, with both teams evenly matched, but experts point to a slight advantage for the Blue Jays due to their starting pitching. All eyes will be on Toronto’s Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who has been dominant this postseason. However, the Mariners’ Cal Raleigh will need to bounce back after a rough Game 6.
