It’s anthem time in Toronto. First it’s Pia Toscano, the ninth-place finisher on the 10th season of American Idol, perfoming the Star-Spangled Banner. And now out comes the giant Canadian flag. Noah Reid, of Franklin and Schitt’s Creek fame, is out to sing O Canada! and the crowd is having a good old sing-a-long. Chills!
Shohei Ohtani is doing the impossible one more time. After a month that’s already seen him break records as both slugger and ace, he’ll take the ball for the Dodgers in Game 7 of the World Series, facing 41-year-old Max Scherzer and a Rogers Centre crowd on full boil.
It’s only fitting that the season that began with Ohtani starting in Tokyo ends with him on the mound in Toronto, completing baseball’s first campaign to open and close outside the United States.
