New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays

Can you believe it? With another win Saturday, the Blue Jays grabbed their share of a crowded, messy tie for the final American League Wild Card spot. You have the coming weeks to familiarize yourself with MLB’s tiebreaker rules, and both the Twins and Rangers still play later Saturday night, but this captures just how spectacular this recent run has been for the Blue Jays. Saturday’s 4-1 win over the Yankees at Rogers Centre is their seventh win in their past nine games, finally making the Blue Jays (61-64) the “hot” team in a Wild Card race that has sat stagnant, waiting for a good story. “It feels good to come to the yard,” said manager John Schneider. “You expect to do good things, and this makes it easier to go out and perform. That’s where we’re at right now. We’ve got to keep doing this. “It’s going to be a grind with a lot of games left, but we’ve got to keep bringing this same feel and same intensity every single day. This definitely feels different than it has for a lot of the year. It feels pretty damn good.” This is what mattered most: **1\. McAdoo finally delivers the big blow** Stop me if you’ve heard this one before, but the Blue Jays were stuck in a quiet, low-scoring game waiting for someone to get a big hit. Familiar, isn’t it? Charles McAdoo changed everything with one swing in the seventh, a rocket double off the wall in center to score the go-ahead run. Just inches shy of clearing the wall for a home run, this looked like one of those classics from Vladimir Guerrero Jr., hit so hard (107.4 mph) that it was either going to go over the wall or through it. McAdoo came right back around in his next at-bat with an RBI single, too, breaking open the Blue Jays’ rally in the eighth.
