TORONTO (AP) — Addison Barger was thinking base hit off the bat, and he was going to score the tying run for Toronto in the ninth inning Friday night.
Then, in a flash, he got doubled off second and Game 6 was over.
“I was being too aggressive,” Barger said after the Blue Jays lost 3-1 to the Los Angeles Dodgers, sending the World Series to a deciding Game 7 on Saturday.
Trailing by two in the ninth, Toronto put runners at second and third with nobody out when Barger’s ground-rule double off Roki Sasaki got lodged at the bottom of the fence in left-center.
Tyler Glasnow entered and quickly retired Ernie Clement on a popup. But the Blue Jays still had a good chance to rally — until Andrés Giménez hit a line drive to left field that Kiké Hernández turned into a game-ending double play.
