Alejandro Kirk Hits Clutch 3-Run Homer to Lead Blue Jays Over Dodgers in World Series Game 3

In Game 3 of the 2025 World Series, Alejandro Kirk of the Toronto Blue Jays hit a crucial three-run home run in the fourth inning off Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow, giving Toronto a 3-2 lead. This homer was Kirk's second of the series and part of a postseason total that tied the record for most home runs by a catcher in a single playoff run. The inning began with Vladimir Guerrero Jr. reaching base and Bo Bichette advancing on an error by Dodgers' second baseman Tommy Edman, which set the stage for Kirk's go-ahead blast. The Blue Jays added another run later in the inning with a sacrifice fly from Andrés Giménez. Despite early home runs from Dodgers' Teoscar Hernandez and Shohei Ohtani against Max Scherzer, Kirk's timely power helped the Blue Jays regain momentum. Kirk's performance, highlighted by his career-high 15 regular-season home runs, continues to be pivotal in the Blue Jays' World Series efforts.
