The New York Yankees get set to host the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 3 of the American League Divisional Series on Tuesday night.
The Blue Jays have the chance to finish of the Yankees in the minimum, thanks to an impressive start in Toronto. After walloping New York 10-1 in Game 1, the bats for the team in blue continued to swarm the Bronx Bombers in Game 2 on Sunday. Along with Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s ear-shattering grand slam in the fourth inning, Toronto hit five home runs, pulling away to win 13-7.
