There are few words to describe the heartbreak that is settling over the Toronto Blue Jays.

Game 7 was two outs away from complete pandemonium at the Rogers Centre, but in a blink of an eye, the Blue Jays saw their lead evaporate and were then on the losing end of a wild World Series finale where the Los Angeles Dodgers completed the comeback and secured back-to-back championships with a 5-4 win.

After a tough loss in that fashion, everyone is going to have different reactions. Players will take blame and others will be furious. For Toronto's first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr., it was a tough pill to swallow.

After the game, Guerrero was in tears as he watched the Dodgers celebrate on the Rogers Centre field. He was the last player in the dugout, watching everything in complete disbelief.

Multiple players shared that feeling with him, as the postgame comments added even more anguish to a fanbase that had their hearts ripped out in back-to-back games. And for Guerrero, it has to sting knowing he provided so much during this run.

After Will Smith hit the go-ahead home run in the top of the 11th inning, Guerrero provided a spark with a leadoff double. Isiah Kiner-Falefa moved him to third on a sacrifice bunt. The Blue Jays were 90 feet away from tying Game 7. After Addison Barger walked, Alejandro Kirk grounded into a double play to end the game.

Guerrero's leadership was on display after the game, as according to Jesse Rogers of ESPN, he went to every teammate's locker and delivered a nice sentiment.

"Told them how proud of the job that they did. I can't be any prouder of my teammates and all the things they accomplished this year," Guerrero reportedly said to his teammates in the clubhouse.

The 26-year old superstar left his mark on the postseason. He delivered one of the greatest playoff runs in baseball history. In 18 games, he slashed .397/.494/.795. He hit eight home runs with 15 RBIs and 29 hits total. The Blue Jays dealt with injuries to Bo Bichette and George Springer during this run, but Guerrero's consistency at the plate and on defense kept his team alive until the very end.

He signed a $500 million extension earlier in the year, and Toronto fans got to see how he is worth every single penny.
