2025-10-19 - Seattle Mariners at Toronto Blue Jays

A Sports Betting Pick by FirstDown

Seattle Mariners @ Toronto Blue Jays
United States : MLB Playoff American League Championship Series Game 6
Sunday 19th October 2025 - Scheduled 8:03pm
1:03am (British Time)


Preview


The Los Angeles Dodgers made comfortable progress to reach the World Series, but the American League Championship Series has moved onto Game 6.

Just when it looked like the Seattle Mariners were about to drop a third consecutive game in the Series, Cal Raleigh came up with a big Home Run to tie Game 5 at the bottom of the Eighth Inning. That was soon followed by Eugenie Suarez thumping a Grand Slam Home Run, his second Homer of the game, and the Seattle Mariners are now a win away from reaching the World Series for the first time.

Emotions were running high in that Seattle win on Friday, but there is still some work to do.

The Mariners have won twice in Toronto already and just need to find one more victory on Sunday or Monday- 'just' makes it sound much easier than it will be and the Toronto Blue Jays will certainly feel they had enough opportunities to win Game 5.

Being back at home will mean playing a positive atmosphere, but Toronto did not only lose the last game, but they could be without George Springer. The Designated Hitter has been leading off very effectively for the Blue Jays, but he took a fastball right on the knee late in the defeat on Friday and Springer has to be considered a doubt.

This would be a significant loss for the Blue Jays as they try and get after Logan Gilbert for a second time in the Playoff. The Mariners starting pitcher was throwing on short rest having been a part of the bullpen in the Divisional Round epic Game 5 win against the Detroit Tigers, and Logan Gilbert lasted 3 Innings and allowed two earned runs in his time on the mound.

In the previous 8 Innings thrown in the post-season, Logan Gilbert allowed a single run and he is starting this one on five day rest. During the 2025 regular season, Logan Gilbert pitched in this ballpark once and he held the Toronto Blue Jays to two runs while coming to a single out away from completing 5 Innings.

Toronto are set to go back with rookie Trey Yesavage who had a difficult start to Game 2 in this Championship Series and he allowed five earned runs in 4 Innings thrown. Better command will help after Yesavage handed out three Walks in that outing, while the collapse of the bullpen in the Game 5 defeat to the Seattle Mariners may mean the rookie is asked to go longer than he has in either start made in the post-season.

Prediction


The National League Championship Series was extremely one-sided, but this American League Championship Series has been so much fun to watch.

There is no doubt that the Toronto Blue Jays will be kicking themselves for failing to take advantage of some strong positions and knocking over more than the two runs secured. That ultimately cost them with five runs allowed at the bottom of the Eighth Inning and Seattle are heading back to Canada needing to win one of the next two games scheduled.

Doing that would take the Mariners into the World Series for the first time and Logan Gilbert will be going to the mound with five days of rest.

George Springer's status is unclear after taking a fastball right to the knee, and his absence would really hurt Toronto.

They will be confident that Trey Yesavage can offer a slightly stronger command after the Game 2 outing against the Mariners, but both batting lineups are looking comfortable and they can come together to surpass this total set.


For those playing the Prop markets, backing a couple of players hitting a Home Run could pay out here.

The Mariners are not afraid to pitch around Vladimir Guerrero Jr, but even the limited time spent at the plate could see the Toronto batsman find yet another Home Run.

You could also back Julio Rodriguez to do the same for the Seattle Mariners and even one of those players coming up trumps would secure a solid profit.

The Pick :

Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 Seattle Mariners
