The World Series will go to a Game 7. The Los Angeles Dodgers were on the verge of losing their chance to force the World Series to Game 7, but a game-ending double play saved the day.
In the ninth inning, the Dodgers had a two-run lead that was starting to slip away. However, Kiké Hernández turned a potential tying, two-run single by Andrés Giménez into a historic double play.
The crazy thing is I had no idea where the ball was because it was in the lights the whole time.
Hernández's play preserved a 3-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 6, pushing the series to Game 7. The Dodgers now have a chance to become the first repeat champion since the 1998-2000 New York Yankees.
The Blue Jays were denied a World Series-winning, three-run homer, similar to the one Joe Carter hit off Philadelphia’s Mitch Williams to capture the title in Game 6 in 1993.
