Has any pitcher ever won both Games 6 and 7 in the World Series?

Bunt Vlad over? Nah, too hard. Go for the fence.

4th ring for Mookie.

One of the greatest games ever played.

I had no dog in that fight, but I’m a little sad for the Blue Jays. Ah well. GREAT game, and a great series.

A broken bat… damn, that’s what you call heartbreak, but that’s the game. Like they said: great series, great games.

Whatever the hitters did, 96 pitches from Yamamoto last night, and he went three innings throwing 97 MPH and could have gone more tonight. Incredible.

I was surprised that Barger didn’t try to steal. Would the Dodgers have even risked a throw?

Great series. I didn’t realize who I was rooting for until I felt bummed out at the end.

I bet the Jays wish they had that one at bat they threw away in the first. Yamamoto is the story, but the Blue Jays ran themselves out of a Word Series title.

I feel for Vlad though. It would have been nice to see him win one.

I’ve been a Dodgers fan since I was a child, so why does this win feel kinda bittersweet? I guess fandom can be weird.

What he did was unprecedented. No rest and he’s good for three and showed no signs of weakening? He deserves it.
