TORONTO – Toronto Blue Jays fans across the country are heartbroken after their hopes of seeing the team win its first World Series in 32 years were dashed by the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Dodgers beat the Blue Jays 5-4 in extra innings Saturday after a tense Game 7 in front of a sell-out crowd at Rogers Centre.

Fans were left stunned after the Dodgers’ Miguel Rojas hit a game-tying home run in the ninth inning, evening out the score 4-4, and Will Smith’s 11th-inning home run clinched the game for L.A.

Earlier in the game, it seemed like Bo Bichette’s three-run homer in the third inning would lead the Jays to victory.

Sombre fans leaving the Rogers Centre said the final outcome was gut-wrenching after the Jays’ unforgettable playoff ride united people across Toronto and the rest of the country.
