Summary
Ty France, MLB’s all-time hit-by-pitch king, is back in action after missing games due to lingering pain from a freakish Roki Sasaki pitch that struck his left hand — a rare injury that even he admits stung more than usual. Now facing his old team, the Toronto Blue Jays — who stunned the baseball world with their epic, heartbreaking Game 7 World Series loss to the Dodgers — France is eager to reconnect with teammates about to receive their championship rings. Though he won’t wear his, he’ll proudly display it beside his Gold Glove as a tribute to that unforgettable run. The Jays’ rotation features a dramatic return for Shane Bieber, who’s making his first start against the Padres after Tommy John surgery and elbow rehab — and he’s got a personal connection to the Padres’ pitching coach. Meanwhile, Padres’ lefty J.P. Sears, with a solid history against Toronto, steps in for a tense, nostalgic showdown. This three-game series promises fireworks — both on the mound and in the memories.
