Drake Mocks Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers in Photos After Blue Jays’ Game 5 Victory
The Toronto Blue Jays have captured the attention of their celebrity fan, rapper Drake, with a commanding 6-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 5 of the World Series. This win gives the Blue Jays a crucial 3-2 lead in the series, reigniting their hopes for a championship title.
Drake’s Social Media Fun at Dodgers’ Expense
Throughout the game, Drake humorously took to social media to mock the Dodgers, leveraging a famous image of Shohei Ohtani from a GQ photo shoot. His playful jabs highlight his passion for Toronto sports.
Blue Jays’ Momentum in the World Series
Since suffering a tough loss in Game 3, the Blue Jays have rebounded impressively. They have outscored the Dodgers by a remarkable 12-3 over the last two games, reclaiming home-field advantage as the series shifts back to Toronto.
Trey Yesavage’s Historic Performance
One of the standout performances came from rookie pitcher Trey Yesavage, who set a World Series record with 12 strikeouts in seven innings. His achievement emphasizes the talent within the Blue Jays’ roster.
Ohtani’s Struggles Continue
On the other hand, Shohei Ohtani has faced difficulties at the plate, going 0-for-7 with a walk in his last two games. Despite a record-setting performance in his previous outing, he has struggled to find his groove against the Blue Jays’ pitching.
Exciting Game Highlights
- Blue Jays hit two home runs on the first three pitches.
- Davis Schneider and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. both homered off Dodgers pitcher Blake Snell.
Aiming for Championship Glory
The Blue Jays are just one win away from their first World Series title since 1993. This date is significant, as Joe Carter’s legendary walk-off home run occurred on October 23, one day before Drake’s seventh birthday.
As Game 6 approaches, it’s likely that Drake will be present at Rogers Centre for what promises to be a historic matchup for the franchise, reminiscent of the 1993 glory days.
