Vladimir Guerrero Jr. continued his impressive October performance in Game 6 against the Seattle Mariners during the American League Championship Series. The Toronto Blue Jays’ star hitter smashed a 384-foot home run in the fifth inning, tying the team record for most postseason home runs with six alongside legends Jose Bautista and Joe Carter.
Guerrero Jr. has been on fire this postseason, maintaining a remarkable .462 batting average with just two strikeouts and an outstanding 1.532 OPS in 39 at-bats. After the game, he expressed his dedication to giving his all for the city and fans.
In an earlier game against the New York Yankees, Guerrero Jr. made history by hitting the first grand slam in Blue Jays postseason history, contributing to his lead in home runs, RBIs, OPS, and hits among all players in the playoffs.
The Blue Jays secured a Game 7 opportunity, vying for a chance to return to the World Series for the first time since 1993. Guerrero Jr., who signed a lucrative contract extension earlier in the year, is determined to bring success to Toronto.
