00:00and it does feel like an injury backs against the wall puts these guys in a better position

00:07I think about last year with Freddie Freeman going into the World Series right a bum ankle

00:11now what does he do he would World Series MVP George Springer hits or gets hit by a Brian Wu

00:1796 mile an hour sinker on the knee and he's wearing it in game six you can tell he's just

00:23not feeling well and in game seven I didn't even think he looked fully healthy but he just found

00:29something extra and hit one of the biggest home runs in the history of the Toronto Blue Jays

00:34franchise another cool stat from our Twitter team players to hit a go-ahead home run in game seven

00:40while trailing by two or more runs Yogi Berra in the 1960 World Series game seven and George Springer

00:492025 ALCS game seven just two Blue Jays they have Joe Carter they have this whatever they actually

00:57get to the World Series it's the most dramatic way possible arm yeah and the coolest part I mean

01:03I'm sure Blue Jays fans are hoping they can win it the same way too I what's what I'm fascinated by

01:08is the fact that he is George Springer maybe one of the best World Series specifically World Series

01:14performers we've ever seen him I am I looking at this right on baseball reference seven homers and

01:2014 games in the World Series I think so feels right that how is that possible it's it sounds crazy and

01:28it sounds wrong but it also sounds right when you consider what George Springer has been doing in the

01:35postseason his entire career well and he won World Series MVP in 2017 where he hit five homers in that

01:41World Series but 2019 was his best regular season right like by a statistical output marginally better than

01:48this regular season which this was his second best regular season I would argue if you combine

01:53postseason regular season you could argue that at 35 years old because he didn't have a great

01:56postseason ironically George Springer in 2019 this has been the best baseball season of George Springer's

02:03career at 35 years old where I admittedly the last two years thought he was cooked right like I just I

02:08just didn't think there was anything left why would it suddenly come back at 35 when he's looking like

02:14he's tapering off at 33 34 this is one of the crazier I just think turnarounds that we've seen

02:19just amazing again 4-3 the win of the American League Championship Series for the Toronto Blue Jays in game
