The Blue Jays trailed the Orioles by two runs in the final inning with two outs and two runners on. Alexis stepped up as the go-ahead run. He found a pitch he liked, crushed it down the left field line, and knew it was gone the moment he hit it. He celebrated with a fist pump as he made his way around the bases, taking time at each one to soak in the moment and collect high fives from teammates.
By the time he reached home, the Blue Jays had walked it off and the field turned into a celebration. Alexis was all smiles, and that energy spread across the diamond. Even the opposing team couldn’t help but join in. The game came courtesy of the Miracle League of Arizona, an organization that provides baseball opportunities for players with disabilities. The moment was more than just a game-winner — it was pure joy on full display.
