Before the Blue Jays' winner-take-all Game 7 matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday evening, it was reported that two Hall of Famers, Paul Molitor and Jack Morris, will throw the first pitch. Molitor only played 29 postseason games, but 12 of them were with the Blue Jays in 1993. He slashed .447/.527/.851 with three home runs in 53 plate appearances, winning the World Series MVP as the Blue Jays took down the Phillies in six games to win back-to-back titles.
