Addison Barger delivered the first pinch-hit grand slam in World Series history as Toronto used a nine-run sixth to set the tone vs. the defending champs in its first Fall Classic since 1993.
Correctly predicting a home run is always impressive, but MLB Network analyst Dan Plesac took calling his shot to another level before Game 1, when he said Addison Barger would come off the bench and go deep for Toronto.
Dexter Fowler faced Shohei Ohtani during a tour of Japan in 2014 and had high praise for the pitcher. Then he found out Ohtani's an even better hitter.

MLB Tonight brings you the latest news, analysis, interviews and more live from Toronto at 6 p.m. ET and following the final out of World Series Game 2 on MLB Network.
