The Los Angeles Dodgers managed to win the ninth World Series title in franchise history thanks to an extra-innings win over the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 7 of the Fall Classic.<\/p>\n
The team\u2019s playoff push was fueled by another winter of star roster acquisitions, including the addition of Roki Sasaki and reunions with Teoscar Hernandez and Clayton Kershaw. And another newcomer played a key role, after the Dodgers landed two-time Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell with a $182 million contract.<\/p>\n
Snell went on to make three stellar playoff appearances for the Dodgers in his outings against the Cincinnati Reds, Philadelphia Phillies and Milwaukee Brewers. But when he reached the World Series and the Toronto Blue Jays, he suddenly struggled.<\/p>\n
\u201cThree pitches, two home runs and World Series history made by the Toronto Blue Jays in a stunning start to a pivotal Game 5,\u201d Gabe Lacques wrote for USA Today<\/a>. \u201cSnell, the two-time Cy Young Award winner who posted a 0.86 ERA with just six hits given up in three playoff wins entering the World Series, opted to throw three fastballs out of the game, and was punished for it.\u201d<\/p>\n One of those home runs was hit by Blue Jays\u2019 franchise slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. But after his team won it all, Snell opted to take a bit of a victory lap over Guerrero on social media, before immediately voicing some regret.<\/p>\n \u201cHe in Cancun,\u201d Snell said in response to a comment about Guerrero getting the better of him, as seen in a video posted on Reddit<\/a>.<\/p>\n
