'The Yankees lose' (aka the Blue Jays win and are going to the American League Championship Series)

from Deep Left Field with Mike Wilner · host Toronto Star

The Blue Jays are going to the American League Championship Series!   The Jays shrugged off their ugly loss to the New York Yankees in Tuesday's Game 3 and did all the things that got them to this point on Wednesday - great defence, timely hitting, making their opponents pay for mistakes - and combined that with an outstanding performance from eight relievers to knock the Yankees out of the post-season, guaranteeing that they won't defend their American League pennant.   Of the four teams that went into their games Wednesday with a chance to advance to the next round, the Jays are the only one that managed to do it.   They're in the League Championship Series - one of the last four teams standing - for the first time since 2016 and only the third time since 1993. They'll face either the Detroit Tigers in the first-ever 401 series or the Seattle Mariners in the first-ever ALCS battle between 1977 expansion cousins.   On this latest playoff bonus episode of Deep Left Field, we go over the Game 4 win, what went right and what could have gone wrong, and we open up the mailbag at [email protected]  for your comments and questions!   Audio sources: Fox and Sportsnet
