Scherzer Seeks Third World Series Title in Epic Game 7 Showdown
1 Nov
Summary
- Dodgers and Blue Jays face off in World Series Game 7
- Max Scherzer to start for Blue Jays, seeking 3rd career title
- Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani likely to start on the mound
On November 2, 2025, the Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers will face off in a decisive Game 7 of the World Series. The Dodgers, who are seeking to become the first repeat Fall Classic winners since 2000, staved off elimination on Friday night and evened the series with a Game 6 victory.
The Blue Jays will now have one more shot at home to win their first title since 1993. Manager John Schneider has confirmed that veteran right-hander Max Scherzer will get the ball to open up the night. Scherzer, who is no stranger to high-pressure situations, will be making his record-breaking ninth appearance in a winner-take-all game.
While Scherzer's regular season performance was not up to his usual standards, he has a reputation for rising to the occasion in the postseason. The Dodgers, on the other hand, have not yet officially committed to a starting pitcher, though there is ample reason to believe Shohei Ohtani will at least start the contest.
The stage is set for an epic showdown between two of baseball's elite teams, with Scherzer seeking to cement his legacy by winning his third World Series title and the Dodgers aiming to repeat as champions. It promises to be a thrilling conclusion to the 2025 season.
