As Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and David Ortiz proclaimed “DAAAA YANKEES LOSE!”, Toronto Blue Jays fans celebrated as Canada’s team was crowned American League Division champs, beating out their New York rivals on Wednesday in Game 4.

The massive series win now paves the way for the American League Championship Series, Seattle Mariners, in a best-of-seven series. This episode was recorded on Friday, before the Seattle Mariners vs Detroit Tigers 15-inning game 5 decider. The panel commented on the possible scenarios heading into the ALCS, including any pitching rotation/roster and injury updates.

The organization hasn’t gone this deep into the season since 2016 and fans are hoping some 1992/93 World Series magic is on the horizon.

Host Melanie Ng brings together a powerhouse panel for this conversation, including Jays play-by-play announcer Ben Shulman, Sportsnet Blue Jays analyst Blake Murphy and 680 NewsRadio sports reporter Simon Bennett.
