Two of the best offenses in baseball are matching up in the World Series, which begins on Friday night in Toronto.
During the regular season, the Dodgers scored the second-most runs in the Majors, while the Blue Jays were fourth. The two clubs were second and third, respectively, in OPS, and second and fourth in park-adjusted wRC+ . They did go about things a bit differently: more home runs and walks for the Dodgers but more contact and fewer strikeouts for the Blue Jays. Yet the end results were similar.
Given that these are the last two teams left standing, it’s no surprise to learn that their lineups have continued to produce in October. In fact, the Toronto offense has been historically good this postseason . While the league as a whole has hit .229/.306/.384 in the 2025 playoffs
