00:00Blue Jays' star sums up World Series loss in one sentence.

00:05If you like your baseball with a side of heartbreak and heroics,

00:09Game 7 of the World Series served up a five-course meal.

00:13The Toronto Blue Jays versus the Los Angeles Dodgers, Game 7.

00:18Thousands of fans at Rogers Center were on their feet, hearts racing,

00:21waiting to see who blinks first.

00:23And it was the Blue Jays who blinked hard.

00:27Will Smith's 11th inning blast breaks Toronto's heart.

00:31A 3-2 series lead heading into Game 6, home field advantage in the decisive Game 7,

00:37and a three-run bomb from Bo Bichette off Shohei Otani got things rolling early.

00:41It felt like destiny.

00:43The Dodgers, who were defending champs and drama connoisseurs,

00:47tied it in the top of the ninth and, in the 11th, Will Smith ended it with a solo shot.

00:52Yoshinobu Yamamoto came in to shut the door and snatch the MVP trophy.

00:57Bo Bichette's return was heroic, but not enough.

01:01Bo Bichette returned from a brutal knee injury, battled like a warrior through the series,

01:05and tried to keep it together in the post-game interview.

01:08I wish we could have shared that moment together, Bichette said after the game.

01:12If that doesn't punch you right in the baseball soul, I don't know what does.

01:17He went 8-for-23 during the World Series with four walks and one massive homer.

01:21But now comes the tough part.

01:24Blue Jays face pressure to keep the core together.

01:26Bichette's free agency is looming, but he's saying all the right things.

01:30Vladdy is staying, locked in for 14 years, half a billion dollars.

01:35That's a duo with history, chemistry, and unfinished business.

01:38But now, it's up to the front office.

01:40Can they afford to keep the band together?

01:42This wasn't just a loss.

01:44It was a chapter in a story that's far from over.

01:46The heartbreak that might fuel a full-circle moment next season.
