MONTREAL -- Vladimir Guerrero Jr. followed in his Hall of Fame father's footsteps in a most fitting way at Olympic Stadium.
With the Cardinals and Blue Jays locked in a scoreless tie in the bottom of the ninth, Guerrero crushed the second pitch he saw from St. Louis righty Jack Flaherty deep to left-center field for a walk-off home run and a 1-0 Toronto victory on Tuesday night.
When I was a kid in Cleveland, my crazy predictions always revolved around Rick Waits. He was a promising left-handed pitcher for the Indians, who always seemed to me on the brink of breaking out and becoming a star.
