You're part of the way there.
The Blue Jays
were the home team for their visit to Citizens Bank Park (25th-27th June 2010).
But back in October 1984 for Game 2 of the World Series @Jack Murphy Stadium, San Diego - the Padres (home) hosted the Tigers (away).
Remember these two games are interleague games (AL Team V's NL Team) played in a NL stadium.
So what could have happened this year for the first time since it last occured back in Game 2 of the 1984 World Series?
Note: A rule change was applied before the 1986 World Series to stop this happening every other year.
