Tonight a Canadian🇨🇦will be playing in the #WorldSeries for the 3rd consecutive year 2024-25 Freddie Freeman(🇨🇦parents) 2025-Vlad Guerrero Jr(born in Montreal) But Liam Hicks will become the 1st born-and bred🇨🇦 since Ryan Dempster and John Axford appeared in the 2013 Finals

As a #BlueJays fan, Andrew Miller’s spectacular 2016 postseason run with Cleveland is burnt into my memory A decade later, Cade Smith’s🇨🇦 run is giving me similar vibes Miller 30 Ks 1.40 ERA 19.1 IP 5 hold, 2 wins and a save Smith 13 Ks 1.00 ERA 9.0 IP 2 saves

Barring an unexpected demotion or injury, there will be at least one Canadian🇨🇦 playing in the World Series this year: Tristan Peters @WhiteSox Cade Smith and Erik Sabrowski @CleGuardians Liam Hicks @RaysBaseball Freddie Freeman @Dodgers (🇨🇦parents)

Tristan Peters #WhiteSox went 1 for 3 tonight Before today, the last time a Manitoban recorded a post-season hit was October 8, 2004, when Corey Koskie went 2 for 4 in Game 3 of the ALDS for the #Twins

The #DBacks will give the ball to Mike Soroka🇨🇦in game 162, with the season on the line If the Albertan-righty gets the win, he will reach double-digit wins for the first time since his rookie season in 2019

Josh Naylor #Mariners stole his 30th base of the season last night, becoming the 4th Canadian🇨🇦born player with back-to-back 30 steal seasons Also first time since 1890 that 2 🇨🇦have 30+ steals in the same season (Otto Lopez is the other)

Josh Naylor #Mariners is one stolen base shy of becoming the fourth Canadian🇨🇦born player to record 2 consecutive 30 steal seasons in a row (Terry Puhl, Spud Johnson and Pop Smith are the previous three)

Last night Cade Smith #Guardians became just the 3rd Canadian🇨🇦to record 40 saves in a season The BC-native has recorded his third consecutive 100+ strikeout season and lowered his ERA below 2

Last night Nick Pivetta #Padres tied Jeff Francis for 8th in all time wins by a Canadian🇨🇦born pitcher Likely with one more start this year, he can still tie James Paxton for 7th

Cal Quantrill #Rangers just became the 15th Canadian🇨🇦born pitcher to reach the 700 strikeout mark He started the day 11 back of Russ Ford for 14th all time🇨🇦and 26 back of his Dad (Paul)

With his first home homer this afternoon, Vlad Guerrero Jr passes Russ Martin for the most home runs by a player from Quebec #BlueJays

Last night Cade Smith #Guardians recorded his 36th save of the season Only 3 other Canadians have recorded more single season saves: John Hiller -1973 (38) Eric Gagne -2002-04 (52, 55, 45) John Axford -2011 (45) He tied Jordan Romano’s 2022 and ‘23 mark at 36

My weekly All-time Quantrill strikeout leaderboard update: Paul -725 Cal -699 (4 more last night) #Rangers With only a few more starts in 2026, it seems a stretch that Cal can catch his Old Man this year

Why is Sanchez in the outfield and Arrighetti starting games for a team trying to make the playoffs? I get patience in spring but it’s the first week of September and these 2 are just not cutting it I get the rotation is in shambles but you can’t throw this guy out every 5 games
