Toronto Blue Jays star Vladimir Guerrero Jr. channeled a Canadian sports hero prior to Game 7 of the World Series on Saturday night against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Guerrero was spotted walking into the Rogers Center with the jersey of Canadian women’s hockey star Marie-Philip Poulin. The slugging first baseman appeared to be locked in as he walked into the stadium to prepare for the biggest game of his career.

Poulin has four Olympic gold medals to her name. She helped Team Canada to wins in 2010, 2014 and 2022. Canada won a silver medal in 2018. She also has four gold medals in the world championships. She currently plays in the Professional Women’s Hockey League for the Montreal Victoire.

She reacted on her Instagram Stories to Guerrero’s nod.

“Wow,” she wrote with a tearful emoji. “Let’s go Blue Jays!”

TORONTO — Los Dodgers han forzado un séptimo partido en la Serie Mundial.

Y Shohei Ohtani será su lanzador titular.

A solo cuatro días de su salida de más de seis entradas y 93 lanzamientos en el cuarto partido de esta Serie Mundial, Ohtani será el abridor del equipo en el partido decisivo del sábado, según anunció el equipo el sábado.

Aunque es casi seguro que Ohtani no completará todo el partido, debería ser capaz de aguantar al menos dos o tres entradas (dependiendo de lo laboriosa que sea su salida). Cuatro o cinco entradas tampoco serían descabelladas, incluso en lo que será solo su segunda salida en la MLB tras tres días de descanso.

La única vez que Ohtani lo hizo fue en 2023, cuando siguió a una apertura de dos entradas acortada por la lluvia en el Fenway Park contra los Red Sox con una salida de siete entradas cuatro días después.

El sábado, por supuesto, las circunstancias serán completamente diferentes, ya que será el primer séptimo partido de una Serie Mundial desde 2019.

Al alinear a Ohtani como titular, los Dodgers se asegurarían de no perder su bate durante el resto del partido, gracias a las reglas bidireccionales de la MLB. Si entrara como relevo durante el partido, la única forma de que pudiera quedarse después sería si se cambiara al jardín (ya que las reglas de la MLB estipulan que un equipo perdería el puesto de bateador designado en tales circunstancias). Al alinearlo como titular, también se eliminan las complicaciones que supondría buscarle tiempo para calentar si su turno al bate llegara en la entrada anterior, algo que podría haberle dificultado cerrar el partido.

Ohtani ha completado seis entradas en cada una de sus tres apariciones como lanzador en esta postemporada, con una efectividad de 3,50 y 25 ponches en 18 entradas.

Los Dodgers deberían tener opciones detrás de Ohtani. Tyler Glasnow probablemente estará disponible después de necesitar solo tres lanzamientos para conseguir la salvada en el emocionante final del viernes. Blake Snell también dijo que estaría disponible después de su salida en el quinto partido el miércoles.

En el bullpen, Roki Sasaki también estará a disposición del mánager Dave Roberts, a pesar de haber lanzado 33 lanzamientos en más de una entrada el viernes.

Roberts dijo que todos, excepto el abridor del sexto partido, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, estarían disponibles.

The Miami Dolphins and general manager Chris Grier announced Friday that they have mutually agreed parted ways. 

The decision comes less than 24 hours after the Dolphins suffered a 28-6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night. The Dolphins dropped to 2-7 with the loss. 

Grier, 55, has been with the Dolphins organization since 2000 and served as the team’s general manager since 2016. 

Champ Kelly, the Dolphins’ senior personnel executive, was named the interim general manager. 

“This morning, I made the decision along with general manager Chris Grier to mutually part ways. I have incredible respect for Chris and his family, and I want to thank him for his many contributions to the Miami Dolphins over the last 26 years,” Dolphins managing general partner Stephen M. Ross said in a statement.

“As I assessed the state of the team and in my discussions with Chris, it became clear to both of us that change could not wait. We must improve — in 2025, 2026 and beyond — and it needs to start right now. Champ Kelly will serve as interim general manager effective immediately, and we will begin our search process for a new general manager. I want to thank Champ for stepping up and his commitment to the Dolphins success this season. There is a lot of football left to play and we all need to fight even harder.”

In Grier’s 10 years as general manager, he had a 77-80 record with three playoff appearances. They made the playoffs in 2016, 2022, and 2023, and lost in the Wild Card round all three times. 

The Dolphins finished 8-9 last season despite quarterback Tua Tagovailoa missing six games due to injury, instilling optimism that they could rally and make the playoffs this season, but that has not been the case.

The team has shown some fight and been in some close games, but also sustained three losses of over 20 points so far this season. 

The Dolphins next game is at home against the Buffalo Bills (5-2) on Sunday, Nov. 9.
