The Toronto Blue Jays pulled out a win against the Kansas City Royals keeping the team's play-off hopes alive and entertaining fans in Regina.

Toronto won Wednesday's game 7-1 to force a sixth game in their American League Championship Series. The Jays are still behind in the series and need two wins in a row to advance to the World Series.

"I think they've got momentum," Tiffaney Dobbyn said after watching the game Wednesday at Victoria's Tavern in Regina. "They're gonna do what they did in the last series. They're gonna go down, make a full recovery and hopefully win this."

Tavern manager Jordan Hackel is also a long-time Jays fan.

"My father's the kind of guy that, out of 162 games, he watches 152 of them," Hackel said. "This is kind of bringing the family together ... If they end up in the World Series it would be just an amazing thing to happen."

The next ALCS game takes place in Kansas City on Friday.
