Blue Jays’ title chase fueled by homers
- Updated: October 10, 2016
TORONTO — The Blue Jays bashed their way to the American League Championship Series with a 7-6 win on Sunday to complete a three-game sweep of the Rangers.
After the Rangers scratched out a run in the top of the first inning, Edwin Encarnacion hit a two-run home run and Russell Martin added a solo shot in the bottom half of the frame as the Blue Jays quickly responded in a pivotal Game 3 of the AL Division Series at Rogers Centre.
Toronto has outhomered its opposition 10-3 this postseason. The Blue Jays went deep eight times to Texas’ two in the ALDS. The Blue Jays will play Game 1 of the American League Championship Series on Friday night in Boston or Cleveland (time TBD). The ALCS will be broadcast on TBS, as well as Sportsnet and RDS (in French) in Canada.
