How Jessi Cruickshank and Her Husband Became the World Series Romeo & Juliet |
|
|
|
She's a Toronto Blue Jays diehard. He's team L.A. Dodgers. Will these ill-fated lovers survive the World Series? |
|
By Jessi Cruickshank |
My husband and I are the Romeo and Juliet of the 2025 World Series. Let me explain: I am a proud Canadian. Like many of us, one of my earliest childhood memories was watching Joe Carter hit that Walk Off home run to win the 1993 World Series. With one hit, my fandom was solidified for life.
Little did I know that just a few years earlier, in Los Angeles, my future husband, Evan, was forming his own core memory—watching Kirk Gibson hit a walk-off home run, helping the Dodgers win the 1988 World Series. His fandom was solidified for life.
Years later, we met, we married, we had three kids and moved to his hometown of L.A. We did not have a baseball pre-nup. We could never have anticipated that our teams would face each other in the World Series.
After 18 blissful years together, on the eve of Game 1 we considered seeking a marriage counsellor.
