Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has 39 total bases this postseason and only 2 strikeouts. It's completely ridiculous.

So that 6th inning for Toronto:
- 2 HR
- 4 singles
- 2 BB
- 1 HBP
encapsulates their entire deal and shows what makes them so dangerous. No strikeouts, obviously! and also two tanks.
Doing both is the absolute nearly-impossible ideal. And they're doing it.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. having 6 HR and 2 strikeouts this October is one of the more incredible things I've ever seen.
especially since 1 of those strikeouts might not have been in an ABS world

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s 6 home runs are the most by a player with 2 strikeouts or fewer in his team’s first 10 games of a postseason
Only other players with 6+ HR & 2 or fewer strikeouts in any 10-game postseason span:
1978-80 George Brett
1928-36 Lou Gehrig (3 overlap spans)

Baseball looks hard. Still, three strikeouts on pitches out of the zone. Woopsie.

The Mariners had a ton of strikeouts this year and their defense is one of the weakest in baseball
The Blue Jays had elite defense and no one struck out less
Obviously, the outcome of this one particular game will define generations worth of #narrative

Ohtani has ten strikeouts and two homers tonight, and it's only the 6th inning. Bonkers.

Babe Ruth's only postseason hit as a pitcher was a 2-run triple in a 3-2 win in the 1918 World Series where he pitched 8 innings and allowed 2 runs while striking out no batters.
Shohei Ohtani in the clinching NLCS game: 3 home runs, 6 shutout innings, 10 strikeouts. 🦄

shohei's 10 strikeouts and moonshot home run distances were really just for style points. short of pitching a complete game he completely maxed out all channels through which he could deliver objective value, so he poured his leftover brilliance into knocking out side quests. it seems impossible

-1st player with 2 116+ mph HR in a game under Statcast (2015)
-1st player with 2 career games w/2+ HR & 10+ K

Largest difference between strikeouts as pitchers and batters in first 6 games of a postseason series:
1980 WS PHI: +32 (49 pitching, 17 hitting)
2013 ALCS DET: +31 (73, 42)
2025 ALCS TOR: +28 (62, 34)
1980 WS PHI: +32 (49 pitching, 17 hitting)
2013 ALCS DET: +31 (73, 42)
2025 ALCS TOR: +28 (62, 34)
Seattle has struck out 62 (!) times in six games of the ALCS
Toronto has struck out just 34 times
and that's why the Jays swept the series in four

Three inning-ending double plays by the Blue Jays tonight’s and Trey Yesavage has made his due with six strikeouts.
Jays shutting out the Mariners through five innings.
No doubt we’re starting to approach John Schneider’s pitching adjustments soon…Yesavage at 75 pitches.

3 strikeouts on the mound and a leadoff home run at the plate. Not a bad first inning.

I'd rather see one 9-inning pitcher's duel than nine 1-inning pitchers' duels.
I'd rather see less homers but less strikeouts than more strikeouts but more homers.
I'd rather see a wily veteran throwing 85-mph stuff to drive a lineup crazy than a rookie throwing 100-mph heat but lasting a year.

FINAL: Dodgers 5, Brewers 1
The Los Angeles Dodgers sweep their way to the World Series thanks to Shohei Ohtani turning in arguably the greatest game ever played by a big leaguer. He hit three massive home runs and threw six scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts. A tour de force.

John Schneider makes his first pitching change of the day for the Blue Jays.
Loui Varland is in for Trey Yesavage.
Yesavage ended with:
- 5.2 innings
- 56 strikes
- 87 pitches
- 7 strikeouts
- 1 earned run
Another brilliant start for the youngster.

Shohei is so ridiculous they had to reprogram baseball video games to be able do what he does in real life. It wasn't *possible* to create a character like this before he existed. 10 strikeouts on the mound & 3 HRs in a LCS clinching game? Absurd.
