In an electrifying performance, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. dazzled fans once again as he powered the Toronto Blue Jays to victory against the Seattle Mariners in Game 6 of the American League Championship Series on Sunday. Guerrero Jr., the star slugger, unleashed a mammoth 384-foot home run in the fifth inning, tying the record for most postseason home runs in Blue Jays history alongside legends Jose Bautista and Joe Carter.
With each swing, Guerrero Jr. continues to amaze, boasting a remarkable .462 batting average, just two strikeouts, and an impressive 1.532 OPS in 39 at-bats leading up to the crucial match.
“I woke up today determined to give it my all for this city, for the fans,” Guerrero Jr. declared after his impactful performance.
His standout moment came earlier in the postseason when he crushed the first-ever grand slam in Blue Jays’ playoff history during their triumphant Game 2 against the New York Yankees. Guerrero Jr. now tops the charts across all major league players in home runs, OPS, RBIs (12), and hits (18) during the playoffs.
As the Blue Jays gear up for a decisive Game 7, aiming for their first World Series appearance since 1993, Guerrero Jr.’s unwavering dedication and talent have been pivotal. His exceptional skills were rewarded earlier this year with a massive 14-year, $500-million contract extension from Toronto.
“I was born ready. I want it all for this city,” Guerrero Jr. emphasized, reflecting his passion for the game and his team.
