Where can I watch the Blue Jays tonight?

Why this matters

With Toronto’s inconsistent start, fans who can easily catch every game have a front-row seat to a team that could turn it around—or slip further behind.

TV channels

The Blue Jays game tonight against the Detroit Tigers is broadcast on SN1 (Sportsnet) in Canada. For viewers in the U.S., check local listings or Rays.TV if you’re in the Rays market (Sports Illustrated).

Streaming options

Live streaming is available through MLB.TV, which can be accessed via a Fubo subscription. Out-of-market fans can watch almost any game with an MLB.TV subscription (Sports Illustrated).

Radio broadcasts

For audio, tune into SN590 THE FAN in the Toronto area. The radio feed is also available through the MLB app (Sports Illustrated).

The upshot: You’ve got at least three reliable ways to follow the game tonight, but streaming via MLB.TV gives you the most flexibility if you’re outside the broadcast zone.

When and where is Game 7?

Game 7 schedule

Game 7 of the World Series is played on the home field of the team with the better regular-season record. The date depends on the playoff schedule, but it typically falls in late October or early November (Wikipedia (World Series format)).

Location

For the Blue Jays, if they reach the World Series, a Game 7 would be held at Rogers Centre if they have home-field advantage. Otherwise, it would be at the opponent’s ballpark.

How to get tickets

World Series tickets are sold through MLB’s official ticket marketplace and secondary platforms like SeatGeek (SeatGeek).

The catch: With an 18-23 record, Toronto has a long climb before Game 7 becomes a realistic scenario. Right now, the focus is on winning series like the one tonight.

Who is favored to win Game 7 of the World Series?

Current betting odds

Sportsbooks like DraftKings release updated odds throughout the postseason. For the 2025 World Series, teams like the Dodgers and Braves typically top the favorites list (DraftKings).

Expert picks

ESPN analysts often break down pitching matchups and recent form to pick a Game 7 winner. According to ESPN’s MLB coverage, the team with the deeper bullpen tends to have an edge (ESPN).

Team performance analysis

For the Blue Jays specifically, their lineup featuring Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette can compete with any team, but pitching consistency remains a question mark.

The pattern: Betting favorites often reflect name recognition as much as stats, but in a Game 7, momentum and matchups matter more than the odds board.

What are the odds for the Blue Jays World Series?

World Series odds across sportsbooks

As of early May 2025, the Blue Jays are listed at +1500 to win the World Series on ESPN’s odds board (ESPN).

How odds change over season

Odds fluctuate with team performance, injuries, and trades. The Blue Jays’ slow start has likely pushed their odds longer since preseason (ESPN).

Blue Jays odds compared to other top teams

By comparison, the Yankees and Astros often sit around +600 to +800, reflecting a gap Toronto needs to close (ESPN).

What this means: At +1500, the Blue Jays are seen as a long shot, but not out of it. A strong winning streak could shift those odds quickly.

Has there ever been a game 8 in the World Series?

The 1912 World Series

Yes, a Game 8 occurred in the 1912 World Series between the Boston Red Sox and New York Giants. Game 2 ended in a 6-6 tie after 11 innings due to darkness, so a makeup Game 8 was played at Fenway Park (Wikipedia (1912 World Series)).

Why game 8 occurred

Before the introduction of floodlights, tie games were replayed entirely. The 1912 tie led to an extra game, making it the only best-of-nine World Series in MLB history (Wikipedia (1912 World Series)).

Other postseason game 8s?

No other World Series has needed a Game 8. The format changed to best-of-seven in 1922, eliminating the possibility (Wikipedia (1912 World Series)).

The takeaway: The 1912 anomaly is a trivia staple, but it has no bearing on today’s game. Still, it’s a reminder that baseball’s history is full of quirks.

The trade-off

Selling out for win-now trades could mortgage the future, but staying pat risks wasting another year of Vlad Jr. and Bichette’s primes.
