• Toronto blasted New York 13-7 in Game 2 behind rookie Trey Yesavage’s 11 strikeouts over 5 1/3 no-hit innings, with Vladimir Guerrero Jr. launching the franchise’s first postseason grand slam and Daulton Varsho hitting two homers to send the ALDS to Yankee Stadium at 2-0.
• The Blue Jays opened the series with a 10-1 rout as Alejandro Kirk homered twice, ending Toronto’s long postseason win drought and extending their strong home form against the Yankees.
• Los Angeles rallied past Philadelphia 5-3 in NLDS Game 1 on Teoscar Hernández’s three-run shot in the seventh, while Shohei Ohtani struck out nine over six innings and Roki Sasaki recorded his first career save.
• Milwaukee overpowered Chicago 9-3 with a six-run first inning and three early hits from Jackson Chourio, who exited with right hamstring/tendon stiffness and underwent an MRI that leaves his Game 2 status uncertain, according to manager Pat Murphy.
• Detroit edged Seattle 3-2 in 11 innings on Zach McKinstry’s two-out RBI single, giving the Tigers an early boost in their best-of-five series on the road.
