The World Series is a home run for bars and restaurants.


Toronto split its first two home games of the series against the Dodgers; The Jays lost Game 3, 6-5, after 18 innings, but were poised for back-to-back road wins before heading home.

The Jays haven't won the World Series since 1993, when the team won its second straight championship.

Before this postseason run, the Jays had only appeared in the World Series twice—and both appearances ended in Game 6. If necessary, Game 7 will take place on Saturday.

“The @BlueJays have never lost the #WorldSeries,” user X @progright wrote on Thursday morning.

“Let's go JACE! Game 6 of 6! One more!!” added X-user @techiespringz.

First pitch for Game 6 is set for 8:00 pm ET on Friday in Toronto.
