Toronto Blue Jays fans will have to wait another day before potentially celebrating a World Series victory.

The Blue Jays entered Game 6 with a chance to win their first World Series title since 1993, but were unable to get much of anything going in terms of offence against the Dodgers and Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

Yamamoto, who pitched a complete game in Game 2 of the World Series, went six strong on Friday night, giving up just one run on five hits through six innings. The Dodgers bullpen was able to silence the Jays bats the rest of the way, resulting in a 3-1 victory in the do-or-die outing.

The Blue Jays were pushing in the ninth, as they had two on base with no outs and wound up chasing Roki Sasaki. Tyler Glasnow got the call from the bullpen, however, and was able to end the game in rather quick fashion.

Pitching for the Blue Jays was Kevin Gausman, who gave up three runs on three hits through six innings. It was a solid start for the Jays ace, but once again, he was given little offensive support, dropping his postseason record to 2-3.

Though there was plenty of frustration over not being able to win the World Series on Friday night, the Jays will get another crack at it on Saturday. Fans in Toronto will be every bit as excited, if not more, as they hope to see their team win its first World Series since 1993.

Max Scherzer, who has made two starts in the playoffs so far, will get the start Saturday night. The 41-year-old has a 4.50 ERA with a 1-0 record through his limited postseason action.
