Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts doesn't think Shohei Ohtani heard fans in Toronto taunting him during Game 1 of the World Series on Friday night, and he doesn't think the Japanese two-way sensation is bothered much by boos anyway.

After three decades away from the Fall Classic, the Blue Jays didn’t just return — they roared back.

A nine-run sixth inning, highlighted by Addison Barger’s historic pinch-hit grand slam, propelled Toronto to an 11-4 win.
