It all comes down to this: Game 7 of the 2025 ALCS. One more game to decide which team’s postseason continues on to the World Series and which team’s offseason begins tonight.
After the Seattle Mariners went up 2-0 in the series, the Toronto Blue Jays came back to win Games 3 and 4. Seattle won Game 5, but the Blue Jays staved off elimination with a big 6-2 win in last night’s Game 6 to force a winner-takes-all finale.
This season, the Blue Jays had the best home record in the MLB, despite losing Games 1 and 2 at home during this series. It’ll be an advantage to play in front of a home crowd tonight, because home teams are historically 30-29 in winner-take-all Game 7s.
