Even though the Toronto Blue Jays traded away Spencer Horwitz, their only recent Jewish player, there are still multiple Hebraic angles that our Jewish sports podcasters are celebrating as the team charges into the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers this week. The father-son team of Dan and Ben Shulman will be calling the Jays' broadcasts; macher Mark Shapiro sits as team president and CEO; two of the biggest celebrity fans include Eugene Levy and Geddy Lee; and at least two rabbis—one in Toronto, the other in L.A.—have engaged in a friendly wager over the outcome. Menschwarmers co-hosts Gabe Pulver and James Hirsh dig into all this as the two lifelong Jays fans get ready for Game 1 on Friday night. After that, Gabe sits down with soccer journalist and broadcaster David Gass (co-host of the Kickback Committee podcast), who explains all the chaos of the last week involving Israeli soccer teams, including Birmingham's decision to ban fans of the Maccabi Tel Aviv team and a subsequent called-off match between Maccabi and Hapoel Tel Aviv.

American League Championship Series - Games One and Two(3) Seattle Mariners (90-72) vs. (1) Toronto Blue Jays (94-68)For the first time in 24 years, the Mariners have reached the ALCS. After outlasting the Detroit Tigers in an epic 15 inning fifth game, Seattle looks to continue their magical season and secure their first ever American League Pennant. MVP candidates Cal Raleigh and Julio Rodriguez provided plenty of spark in the ALDS, but it was veteran infielder Jorge "Top Gun" Polanco who came up with the clutch hits, not only the series clinching walk-off, but also two homers off of likely Cy Young Tarik Skubal. Manager Dan Wilson's electric pitching staff will have their hands full with the Blue Jays hitters, who have been the best in baseball since May. Vladdy, Jr. led the way in a dominant performance against the Yankees. Toronto's pitching may be a bit of a question mark heading into this series, but they did the job versus New York. Rogers Centre should be raring to go for game one.Toronto Radio SN 590 - Ben Shulman and Chris LerouxSeattle Radio KIRO - Rick Rizzs and Aaron GoldsmithNational League Championship Series Games One and Two(3) Los Angeles Dodgers (93-69) vs. (1) Milwaukee Brewers (97-65)Despite being the reigning World Series Champions and boasting a record shattering payroll, the Dodgers don't want to view this series as a “David vs. Goliath” matchup. The Brewers may be a small market team without notable superstars, but they were the best team in baseball for a reason. They play hard, they battle, and they force you to execute as an opponent. Still, the pure talent the Dodgers possess is imposing. With 3 MVPS in the lineup, a 2X Cy Young Winner on the hill, and then one of the best Japanese pitchers to ever come over stateside going in game two, it's no wonder Pat Murphy views this series as a challenge. It should be a great one.Los Angeles Radio AM570 - Stephen Nelson and Rick MondayMilwaukee Radio WTMJ - Jeff Levering, Lane Brindle, and Josh MaurerAudio clips from MLB.tvAs always, thank you to Baseball Reference and SABR for statistics, box scores, background information, and much, much more.Catch you next time,P.C.O.
