Prime Minister Mark Carney says he is “super pumped” after the Toronto Blue Jays clinched their first American League pennant in more than three decades with a comeback victory over the Seattle Mariners.
Speaking to reporters in Ottawa on Tuesday, Carney praised outfielder George Springer’s three-run home run that lifted the Jays to a 4–3 win in Game 7. The shot, which came despite Springer being hit on the knee earlier in the series, secured Toronto’s first trip to the World Series since 1993.
Carney said the victory evoked memories of Joe Carter’s iconic walk-off home run that sealed the Blue Jays’ championship 32 years ago. The prime minister also noted that he had told U.S. President Donald Trump during a meeting earlier this month that Toronto would make it back to the World Series — a prediction he said turned out to be right.
The Blue Jays will now face the Los Angeles Dodgers in a best-of-seven World Series beginning Friday at Rogers Centre. The first two games will be played in Toronto before the series shifts to Los Angeles for Games 3 through 5, with Games 6 and 7 set to return north if required.
