"You could not get much closer to winning it all than the Blue Jays did. Whether it was being two outs away in the top of the ninth inning before Jeff Hoffman gave up a game-tying home run to Miguel Rojas, or the Blue Jays having the bases loaded with one out in the bottom of the ninth, and Isiah Kiner-Falefa's foot being inches from scoring the World Series-winning home run."
"It stings like hell, and it's going to hurt for a long, long time. Some people will never get over that Game 7 loss by the Blue Jays, and rightfully so. There are so many what-if scenarios that may haunt their dreams forever. That was a tough, tough way not only to lose a ballgame, but to have a championship slip from your fingertips."
