They became the first team in MLB history to win back-to-back World Series since the New York Yankees in 1999 and 2000.
Despite the Blue Jays' outhitting the Dodgers in the series, it didn't matter in the end when all it took was one swing of the bat.
Los Angeles' Will Smith hit a clutch go-ahead home run in the top of the 11th inning to take a 5-4 lead.
Then Yoshinobu Yamamoto, with runners on first and third with one out, would force Alejandro Kirk into a double play to end the game - proving the Dodgers as champions once more.
"You can't sit on a lead and run a few plays into the line and just kill the clock. You've got to throw the ball over the damn plate and give the other man his chance. That's why baseball is the greatest game of them all." - MLB Hall of Fame manager Earl Weaver (August 14, 1930 - January 19, 2013)
Yamamoto had himself the best possible run during this postseason - 37.1 innings, 33 strikeouts, 23 hits, six earned runs (1.45 ERA), six walks, five wins, two complete games.
He started Game 6 of the World Series, ultimately losing to the Jays. But he finished Game 7 to become a champion yet again.
Yamamoto became the first pitcher in the history of the MLB to win three games on the road in a single World Series.
Now, he's the World Series MVP.

Full game recap (by innings)
1st inning
After a Shohei Ohtani double to get things started for the Dodgers in the top half of the inning, Toronto starting pitcher Max Scherzer was able to get the next three batters out, one courtesy of a great diving play by Vladimir Guerrero Jr. at first base.
During the bottom half of the inning, Ohtani would get to work on the mound as the Dodgers' starter for the game.
After giving up a lead-off single, Ohtani would strike out Nathan Lukes before doubling up Vladdy and George Springer on the basepaths for a double play to end the inning.
Vladdy was wrung up on a 3-2 strikeout that he thought was a walk. Springer was caught running to second after he thought it was ball four.
Blue Jays 0-0 Dodgers
2nd inning
Scherzer made quick work of the Dodgers in the top half of the second inning, striking out Max Muncy and then forcing both Teoscar Hernandez and Tommy Edman to fly out in a 1-2-3 inning.
The veteran starting pitcher retired six straight batters after allowing the lead-off double to Ohtani to start the game.
In the bottom half of the inning, Ohtani would start by walking Bo Bichette and giving up a 3-2 count single to Addison Barger, leaving runners on first and second with nobody out.
He'd get two straight outs via pop-up from Alejandro Kirk and a fly-out from Daulton Varsho.
But Ernie Clement would extend his postseason hitting streak to 13 games with a single to load the bases - setting a Blue Jays franchise record. His 21 singles this postseason are also an MLB record, previously held by David Eckstein in 2002 and Marty Barrett before him in 1986.
But Ohtani would get himself out of the jam with a strikeout on Andres Gimenez - leaving the score at a pair of goose eggs.
Blue Jays 0-0 Dodgers
3rd inning
Scherzer would make it his second-straight inning going 1-2-3. Through the first three innings, Scherzer had only thrown 28 pitches and had given up one hit - a double to Ohtani in the very first at-bat of the game.
Scherzer has since retired nine straight batters.
But Ohtani's night would come to an end in the bottom of the third inning after giving a three-run home run to Bichette. He became the first player in MLB history to hit a home run in Game 7 of the World Series off a former MVP.
After giving up a single to Springer to start the game, Lukes would hit a sacrifice bunt to get Springer over to second. Ohtani would throw a wild pitch with Vladdy at the plate that left Springer jogging over to third base.
Ohtani would intentionally walk Vladdy, hoping for a double-play possibility.
But Bichette had something else in mind - clearing the bases entirely.
Dodgers rookie Justin Wrobleski would come in for Ohtani to get out of the inning. Wrobleski hadn't given up a single run in all four games he pitched during the World Series.
Blue Jays 3-0 Dodgers
4th inning
Scherzer would find himself in some trouble in the top half of the fourth inning. After giving up a double to Will Smith that bounced off the wall in deep left field, and a single to Freddie Freeman, he would walk Muncy to load the bases after getting Betts to pop out.
The Dodgers would put one on the board after Teoscar Hernandez hit a sac-fly to centerfield, scoring Will Smith from third.
But Toronto centerfielder Daulton Varsho would make a diving play to get the second out before Scherzer was able to get out the top half of the inning without any further damage.
Then came the chaotic bottom of the fourth inning...
After Wrobleski forced Clement into a groundout, the benches would clear after he hit Gimenez up and in on the wrist.
Both benches were given a warning after the teams jawed at each other and the inning continued.
Wrobleski would surrender a single to Springer before striking out Lukes to end his night. Tyler Glasnow would come in to make the final out of the inning after forcing Vladdy to fly out with runners on second and first.

5th inning
After giving up a single to Miguel Rojas and striking out Kike Hernandez, Scherzer would finish the game after 4.1 innings of work, giving up one run on four hits with three strikeouts and a walk on 54 pitches (34 strikes).
He said after the game that he doesn't plan on retiring, “I can’t see how that’s the last pitch I’ve ever thrown.”
Louie Varland would come in as the reliever, making it 15 total appearances in the postseason - the most by any pitcher in MLB Postseason history.
After sacrificing a single to Ohtani, Varland would get out of the fifth unscathed, keeping the score intact.
Glasnow would get out of the bottom of the fifth inning without any damage done.
Kirk hit a two-out single, and that was that for the inning.

Kike Hernandez would hit a single, moving Teoscar over to second, before Bassitt was able to get out of the top half after forcing Miguel Rojas into a ground out.
Clement would start the bottom half of the sixth with a no-out single off Glasnow - tying Randy Arozarena for the most hits (29) in a single postseason in MLB history.
After Clement stole second base, Gimenez would bring him home on an RBI double sent in the gap to right centerfield (4-2).
Gimenez would also make history after becoming the first player ever to hit at least 12 RBI in a single postseason from the bottom two slots in the lineup.
Gimenez ended the postseason going 8-for-19 (.421) with runners in scoring position.
Glasnow would get out of the inning after striking out Springer, forcing Lukes to line out to third, and getting Vladdy to ground out to third.

Blue Jays 4-4 Dodgers
10th inning
Seranthony Dominguez would be subbed in for Hoffman to start the 10th inning.
He would go on to force Freeman to fly out to get the first out of the way. But he would load the bases after walking Betts, giving up a single to Muncy, then another walk to Teoscar with just one out - sending a massive shot of adrenaline in baseball fans everywhere.
