Nobody knows just how the World Series is going to play out with the Jays having an edge in some aspects as the Dodgers in others.
Los Angeles is an early favourite to repeat but Toronto has a stellar defense and its offense is clicking on all cylinders.
Game one goes tomorrow night at about 9:30 Newfoundland time.
Tickets for the first two games at the Rogers Centre aren’t cheap, with tickets in the nosebleeds going for well over $1,000.

Brad Janes of St. John’s has been to many games at the Rogers Centre, including the final series of the year when the Jays, as it turned out, had to sweep the Tampa Bay Rays to avoid the Wildcard Series. They did just that to hold off the New York Yankees and win the division.
Janes managed to snag a ticket to game 7, which would be in Toronto, for a decent price.
A ticket in the 500 level nosebleeds set Janes back less than $600 – which is a bargain considering some tickets in the same area are now listed for over $3,000.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford has accused Ticketmaster of gouging people, however the company says it is not the one setting those prices, “nor is any one person or entity.”
In 2019, Ford’s government scrapped legislation that capped ticket resale prices at 50 per cent above the original face value.
