Jays manager John Schneider does not mind that media south of the border have declared that it’s a David and Goliath situation.
He says the Dodgers are a great team, but so too, are the Jays.
It’s the two best teams left – they are a great team and we are a great team,” says Schneider.
First pitch is 9:30 NST, 9:00 in most of Labrador.

Meanwhile, many fans are opting to watch the game at home due to exorbitant ticket prices – mainly fuelled by online ticket resales.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford, who believes the Jays will take the series in six, says he’s not forking over any money to ticket scalpers.
“I’m gonna be sitting in my man cave watching the game because I’m not paying $1,500 for a ticket, said Ford. “And by the way – those ticket gougers are going to pay the price. We’re gonna get to them.”
