"Guerrero's night started with a bang. After leadoff hitter Davis Schneider hit the first pitch of the game out of the ball park, Guerrero came up and said, "hey I can do that too!" He took Dodgers starter Blake Snell deep to make it 2-0 Toronto before some fans had even settled into their seats. It's the eighth home run of the 2025 postseason for Guerrero, who is now tied for second all-time in that category, trailing Randy Arozarena who hit 10 during the 2020 postseason."
"Guerrero's home run was his lone hit of the night, giving him 27 total hits this postseason, just two back of Arozarena's 29. He also entered the game 14 total bases behind Arozarena, who racked up 64 total bases in the 2020 MLB playoffs, while Guerrero has narrowed that gap after his home run and two walks."
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has delivered an exceptional 2025 postseason performance, producing eight home runs and 27 hits through World Series Game 5. He began with a 3-for-4 performance and a home run in ALDS Game 1 and carried strong plate discipline with 12 walks and 10 strikeouts. Guerrero entered Game 5 with a .345/.434/.643 line, a 1.077 OPS, seven home runs and 15 RBIs, then added another homer off Blake Snell. The totals place him among the top all-time postseason performers in homers, hits, total bases and offensive metrics like wRC+.
