For two games and seven innings, Seattle’s bats were quiet — until the eighth exploded. Cal Raleigh tied Game 5 with a leadoff homer, and after two walks and a hit batter, Eugenio Suárez crushed an opposite-field grand slam, his second homer of the night, sending T-Mobile Park into a roar and sealing a 6-2 win over the Blue Jays. Earlier, Alejandro Kirk’s dash home off a misfire in right put Toronto ahead, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. stayed scorching. But the Jays’ bullpen unraveled, leaving Seattle one win from its first pennant on Sunday in Toronto.
