The American League Division Series got off to an unexpected start Saturday. The mighty New York Yankees’ offense was limited to one run in a blowout loss<\/a> to the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays.<\/p>\n

In the other series, the Detroit Tigers, who blew a massive division lead late in the season, managed a tight win over the Seattle Mariners<\/a> in extra innings to take an early lead in the series.<\/p>\n

After two tough losses, the Yankees and Mariners entered Sunday eager to even the series. It didn’t work out for one of them.<\/p>\n

Toronto’s beatdown of New York in Game 1<\/a> was brutal. This one was worse \u2014 at least, until the Blue Jays’ bullpen got involved.<\/p>\n

In front of a raucous Rogers Centre, the Blue Jays once again showed off in Game 2 behind a grand slam from Vladimir Guerrero Jr., a four-extra-base-hit game from Daulton Varsho and an 11-strikeout, zero-hit start from rookie Trey Yesavage.<\/p>\n

Yesavage, who was drafted last year and began 2025 in Low-A, set the tone early, striking out three batters in the first inning and at one point striking out six batters in a row, which tied an MLB postseason record. His 11 total K’s broke the Blue Jays’ postseason record.<\/p>\n

The game was broken open in the fourth inning, when Guerrero demolished a baseball for the first postseason grand slam in Blue Jays history. Varsho proceeded to add two more homers after that to go with his two doubles earlier in the game. At one point, the score was 12-0 Blue Jays. The Yankees made it a game again with seven combined runs in the sixth and seventh innings against the Toronto bullpen, but that still left a large gap to make up.<\/p>\n

The loss marked the first time the Yankees allowed double-digit runs in back-to-back postseason games, and now the reigning AL champs are staring at an 0-2 hole in the ALDS as the series moves to the Bronx. To save their season, they will send out Carlos Rod\u00f3n to face Blue Jays starter Shane Bieber in Game 3, which begins at 8:08 p.m. Tuesday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Detroit Tigers vs. Seattle Mariners: 8:03 p.m. ET on FS1<\/p>\n
