There will be one final game to decide which team will play the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series.
Blue Jays outfielder Addison Barger got things going in the second inning. He singled to right field to score Dalton Varsho. Isiah Kiner-Falefa followed with an infield single that scored Ernie Clement. It was exactly what the Jays needed to start their momentum swing. In the third inning, Barger came back up and hit a two-run home run.
Rogers Center rocking.
Toronto tacked on a fifth run when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. hit a solo home run in the bottom of the fifth inning. Guerrero later scored on a throwing error trying to steal third.

Guerrero was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and his sixth home run of the postseason. Barger was 2-for-3 with three RBI and his second home run of the postseason.
The Mariners had their chances.
Josh Naylor hit a solo home run and Eugenio Suarez singled for Randy Arozarena. But they squandered back-to-back bases loaded opportunities. Trey Yesavage was able to get Cal Raleigh and JP Crawford to ground into double plays in the third and fourth innings, ending the scoring threat.
Yesavage had seven strikeouts in 5.2 innings.
Raleigh was 0-for-4 with three strikeouts. Jesus Rodriguez and Jorge Polanco also went hitless.
Game 7 takes place in Toronto on Monday night at 8:08 PM ET on FOX.
