Blue Jays Steal World Series Game 4 from Dodgers in Extra Innings

Freeman's Homer Not Enough as Blue Jays Prevail

The Los Angeles Dodgers' quest for a World Series title faced a setback as the Toronto Blue Jays emerged victorious in Game 4, continuing what some are calling the "Dodger Stadium curse" [2]. The game followed a dramatic Game 3 where Freddie Freeman's 18th-inning home run secured a win for Los Angeles [2]. However, the Blue Jays managed to steal the win in this latest matchup, leveling the series [2]. The Dodgers, despite Freeman's heroics the previous night, couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage [2].

Oakland Steps Up Off the Field

While the Dodgers and Blue Jays battled on the field, in Oakland, local restaurant owners are stepping up to support families affected by the government shutdown and subsequent loss of SNAP benefits [1]. These businesses are providing assistance to those in need, with one restaurant sharing their own past experiences with food insecurity [1]. This highlights a community rallying together during challenging times, showing support beyond the baseball diamond [1].

• The Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 4 of the World Series, evening the series [2].
• Freddie Freeman's heroics in Game 3 were not enough to secure another win for the Dodgers [2].
