George Springer back in Blue Jays lineup for Game 6 of World Series - Medicine Hat News

TORONTO -- George Springer is back in the Toronto Blue Jays' lineup for Game 6 of the World Series. Springer will lead off as Toronto hosts the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Blue Jays hold a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series for Major League Baseball's championship. The 36-year old Springer, who has mainly been a designated hitter this year, was kept out of the Blue Jays' lineup for a second straight game on Wednesday, missing Toronto's 6-1 Game 5 win in Los Angeles. He's been hurting throughout the post-season after being hit by several balls but left Game 3 after straining his midsection swinging at a pitch. Springer had a resurgent regular season, hitting .309 with 32 home runs and 84 runs batted in. He's hitting .246 with four homers and nine RBIs this post-season.
