Pitching decisions by John Schneider tonight seem like splitting hairs a bit. It's hard to win when you only get 2 hits and have 5 baserunners total in a playoff game.

After giving up the solo home run to George Springer and walks to Nathan Lukes and Addison Barger in the 1st inning, Bryce Miller retired 17 of the next 19 batters.

Gausman may or may not be wearing death trooper gear in between innings.

Three balls hit on the screws by the Blue Jays in the first inning, including George Springer's leadoff home run.

George Springer of the #BlueJays home run was the fourth of the 2025 #Postseason in which a team's first batter of a game hit a home run. That is tied (with 2024) for the second most in a single playoffs. The largest: 2007, with five.

Correction - make it 8 straight games for the white panels (they wore the City Connect getups on Sept 26).

Did you catch Edwin Encarnacion walking the parrot for old times' sake?

No surprise - the white panel caps are back for the ALCS. This is the ninth consecutive game the Blue Jays have worn these lids.

The Blue Jays are 2-5 all-time in ALCS Game 1, and haven't taken Game 1 in the League Championship Series since 1993.

Plenty were optimistic that Bo might be back for the ALCS, but after watching that video of him running the bases yesterday, he's not even close to being ready.

With final rosters due this morning, do we see Max Scherzer or Chris Bassitt making it through to the ALCS?

Scherzer, Bassitt, or both? Which veteran starter makes the Blue Jays' ALCS roster?

If you're a Tigers or Mariners fan right now, your nerves must be completely shot at this point.

I'm sure the Blue Jays are loving the fact that the Tigers and Mariners are emptying their bullpens and some of their starters here in Game 5.

If you're a Jays fan watching this Tigers/Mariners series, you're less than thrilled to potentially face Tarik Skubal twice in the ALCS. But at least it's not three times!

Did anyone actually manage to get Blue Jays ALCS tickets this morning? This is what I saw at 10am.

#Toronto fans - we did the thing.

People talk about Vladimir Guerrero Jr's stellar performance in the ALDS, but Ernie Clement tied him with 9 hits. He was such a tough out against the Yankees.
