THE TORONTO BLUE JAYS ARE HEADING TO THE AMERICAN LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES

And you can turn out the lights on the New York Yankees. Bullpen game for the Jays. No problem. What a win. What a team. Oh baby for sure.

To the 8th inning.

Everything is wonderful. Everything is fine. Calm thoughts. Are we pacing? Are we deep breathing? What are we doing?

IT’S 4-1 TORONTO BLUE JAYS

And Yankee Stadium is stunned.

Lukes with a clutch single to bring in two Jays. Oh my my my.

Kevin Gausman has made his way to the bullpen for Toronto.

I think I hold my breath for the bottom half of every inning. How’s everyone doing out there?

The New York Yankees stay alive with a comeback 9-6 victory.

And now things get really nervy.

Game 4 tomorrow night in the Bronx as once again the Jays will have a chance to close out the series. Good night sports fans.

Devin Heroux @devinheroux.bsky.social · 1d

That’s now 8-straight Yankees runs since the Jays took a 6-1 lead.

It’s 9-6 New York and the pitching changes keep coming for Toronto.

Barring a comeback — from the team with the most this season — they’ll be back at tomorrow in the Bronx for Game 4.

Devin Heroux @devinheroux.bsky.social · 1d

Two errors by the Jays tonight have been costly.

And now it’s 6-6 heading to the 5th inning.

And Yankee Stadium is buzzing. And Toronto is going to have to dig really deep now.

Devin Heroux @devinheroux.bsky.social · 1d

And just like that it’s 6-6

Judge drills a three-run homer off the foul pole.

My goodness. New game in the Bronx

A fan has ran onto the field at Yankees Stadium.

And now another fan is in the infield.

This all playing out ahead of Vladdy’s next at bat.

Toronto has scored 29 runs in 20 innings against the Yankees

They’re booing in the Bronx and Rodon is out in the third inning.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s home runs have been magical.

And his Grand Slam was majestic.

But that hustle home, launching himself to the plate, tells you everything you need to know about how badly he wants this. Outstanding.

VLADDY IS UNSTOPPABLE

Intentionally walked.

Charges home.

It’s 4-1 Blue Jays and Yankee Stadium is silent.

Devin Heroux @devinheroux.bsky.social · 1d

MAKE IT 3-1 BLUE JAYS

They are just relentless. No easy outs. Putting the ball in play. And what great base running by Schneider. It’s the little stuff in the playoffs.

And so far the Jays are doing all the right things.

Devin Heroux @devinheroux.bsky.social · 1d

Taking the New York crowd out of it early.

What a start for the Blue Jays.

Vladdy with a silencer. It’s 2-0 Jays.
