Congratufuckulations Blue Jays.

You did not beat the Rangers. The Rangers let you win with 3 freaking fuck up errors in 1 fucking inning.

Against a good pitcher, you are not good. Everyone thinks you are good cus yes, you have great hitters, but you face shitty pitchers.

Oh yea, the Blue Jays fans throwing bottles and trash on the field in the middle of the game remind me of a Mexican soccer game... can't get more trashy than that .

Joey Bats is a whiny bitch when things don't go his way. When they do, he is like ya fuck you bitch bla bla bla. Yea yea... just say that to Keone Kela and see what happens.

Overally, amazing series. Amazing game 5. But based on the way the Blue Jays played the whole series and based on what they have ahead of them... no fucking way they win the World Series.

I'll agree with 2 things. Garbage on the field, idiot fans. A baby got hit by a beer can.

Not a fan of Joses bat flip. Do it with class.

But what you're saying is the best hitting team in the majors isn't good against good pitching? Doesn't every other team face the same picthers? But not get the same results?, and struggle just as much against the top guys? What team is good against good pitching? Just curious. They struggled against a WS MVP in Cole Hammels? Shocking!! We all know the baseball post season is about pitching so what's so surprising exactly?

Last I checked the Rangers put up 2 runs on a 2nd year pitcher who was on his 6th start of 2015. So what exactly does that mean?

Hell of a game 5. Wow.

Congrats to the Jays...I wasn't sure about their pitching but it came through. Mind you, the Rangers' 3 errors kinda handed the game to the Jays on a platter. Still, clutch hitting by Jose to get them the runs.

The Rangers have the 2nd most errors in the AL this year. Go figure.

I have a few friends that were at the game, and we all agree the trash throwing was stupid classless fools. It was a heck of a series though, not to slog on the rangers but they coughed it up when it counted and that's all that matters. It would have been a tight game otherwise.

Dang and I thought were nice people.

I get that baseball has the "unwritten rules" and you can't have too much fun. Did anyone get beaned after the bat flip?

Wow...nerve-wracking game for the fans of LA and NY.

Congrats to the Mets. Onwards against Chicago. I'll fearlessly pick the Cubs in 7 if their pitching can hold and the kids continue to play.

As much as I'd love my own team to win I don't think I could bring myself to cheer against the Cubs in a WS. How could anyone cheer against the Cubbies in a WS.

Well, all the final 2 matchups are going to be very entertaining...the teams are evenly matched, I think.

In the ALCS, I'll take the Jays in 6.

Let's see if Arrieta be the ace that he is and can tie the series tonight.

If Cueto pitches the way he did in his last outing the Jays are done.

Take The Crown!!

Yup...pitching trumps good hitting. Always. And Mets have had the pitching.

Add to that some bad fielding and etc. from Cubs...

So fucking crazy sports man. On the day that a modern day legend foretold the Cubs' victory actually turned out to be the Cubs' demise. I bet you there are people that for sure thought the Cubs would win last night and come back in the series down 0-3, a la the Red Sox, on the day the legend of Speilberg predicted their "victory". Worst luck in sports.

Looking forward to the WS, whichever AL team gets there.

This Mets team is very likable and I gave them no chance to get where they are at the beginning of the season. I really don't have a favorite of the three.
