‘OK to Be Sad’: Hope Turns Into Heartbreak for Blue Jays Fans After World Series Loss

The Blue Jays lost a close Game 7 after an 11th-inning home run by the Dodgers, ending a playoff run that united millions of Canadian fans, officials said.

  • After a remarkable climb from 2024, the Toronto Blue Jays rose from last place to win 94 games and the American League pennant with a roster blending continuity and key temperament-focused signings.

  • The result gave the Los Angeles Dodgers consecutive titles while Canadians across the country were left heartbroken as bars fell silent and fans dispersed after the Game 7 loss.
  • Several roster decisions loom as Bo Bichette, Max Scherzer and Chris Bassitt face free agency and Shane Bieber holds a $16 million player option, while spring training in February brings hope for next year.
