Read below for the top five moments of Game 7.

5). Clayton Kershaw ending his career on a high note

It looked pretty bleak for a while. Clayton Kershaw was stuck watching the Blue Jays try to wrap up a victory against the Dodgers, which would have ended their 32-year World Series title drought. Instead, Max Muncy, Miguel Rojas and Will Smith turned the game around in a hurry.

Kershaw got to end his career with a third championship ring as his next stop is Cooperstown and enshrinement into the Baseball Hall of Fame. He addressed his teammates in the locker room right before the champagne began to spray.

“It’s an absolute honor to be in this clubhouse with you guys. I love every single one of you,” he said. “I can’t imagine a better way to go out than to pop bottles with this group of guys. We’re back-to-back champs!”

4). Bo Bichette’s three-run home run

The Rogers Centre was buzzing early in the game. Blue Jays fans were waiting for something amazing to happen and they got it. Bo Bichette, who was battling a knee injury, clobbered a three-run home run in the third inning to give the Blue Jays the lead.

Bichette was 2-for-4 before manager John Schneider pinch-ran for him later in the game.

3). Andy Pages’ catch over Enrique Hernandez

Blue Jays third baseman Ernie Clement had the bases loaded and a chance to establish himself next to Joe Carter in the lore of the organization. Clement drove a pitch deep to left-center field.

Enrique Hernandez was tracking the ball but would have needed to make an over-the-head catch to end the inning. Instead, center fielder Andy Pages came over and caught the ball over Hernandez. Pages steamrolled Hernandez to make the grab, it kept Los Angeles’ hope alive.

2). Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s magical 2-plus innings

The Dodgers called on Yamamoto to help the team out of a jam in the bottom of the ninth inning – a night after he pitched six innings in the Dodgers’ Game 6 win.

Yamamoto entered the game for Blake Snell and was able to end the bases-loaded threat. He then shut down Toronto in the 10th and 11th innings to seal the deal. He won three games in the World Series and was named the World Series MVP.

He was the first MLB player in history to homer in extra innings of a World Series in Game 7, according to Opta Stats.

Saturday’s game at Memorial Stadium in Clemson proved to be a dramatic affair filled with momentum swings.

Duke looked unstoppable in gaining 199 yards in the first quarter to lead 21-7. But Clemson woke up with three straight touchdowns to lead 28-21. The Tigers looked in control again with six minutes left until Duke’s final drive.

The 46-45 loss to the Blue Devils was yet another low point in what continues to be a disappointing season for Clemson. The Tigers have lost four home games for the first time since 1998.

With seconds left before halftime, cameras caught Swinney furiously shouting at players along Clemson’s sideline.

After the game, Swinney reflected on some of the devastating defeats he had been part of during his lengthy coaching tenure at Clemson. He then quipped about the possibility of being fired after the heartbreaking loss to Duke.

“No,” Swinney responded when asked if this was the most exasperating season he’s had since he’s been the head coach at Clemson. “2010, I’d put this one and 10 probably right there… those two. I mean 10, brutal. We lost five games by six points or less, two in overtime.”

“[I] may get fired today,” Swinney said as he recalled feeling uncertain about his job status after a disappointing loss to South Carolina more than a decade ago. “Graham (Neff, Clemson’s athletic director) is sitting in the back there today, so I don’t know. Can’t said I’d blame him.”

Swinney later downplayed concerns about his job, telling FOX Carolina he remains focused on winning.

“We’ve gotta win some games. I’m just worried about trying to beat Florida State,” Swinney said.

Duke running back Nate Sheppard had a 3-yard touchdown run with 40 seconds left, and the Blue Devils followed with a two-point conversion from Darian Mensah to wide receiver Shamir Hagans to secure a win at Clemson for the first time since 1980.

“Going extra innings at Death Valley isn’t really a good plan,” Duke coach Manny Diaz said. “Winning in regulation somewhere you hadn’t in 45 years? This is a major step for our program.”

Duke trailed 45-38 and started the game-winning drive on their 6-yard line. Mensah led an 11-play drive in which he converted two fourth downs to set up Sheppard’s scoring run.

There was no hesitation from Duke’s Diaz who kept the offense on the field and Mensah quickly found Hagans for the decisive points.
