10 h. ago Dejected Yankees broadcasters left in stunned silence by Vladdy Jr.'s huge grand slam

The New York Yankees and their collective fan base may be having nightmares of Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr.The Blue Jays have gotten off to as good a start in the ALDS as one could have hoped, as they hold a 2-0 series lead over the Yankees and have outscored them 23-8. Guerrero has played a huge role in that, smacking two long balls to go with a staggering .667 and six RBI.While Guerrero was outstanding in Game 1, it was his grand slam in Game 2 that really put a stamp on this series so far. The 26-year-old stepped up to the plate with the bases loaded in the bottom of the fourth inning and hit a moon shot for the first-ever grand slam in Blue Jays postseason history.VLADIMIR GUERRERO JR. GRAND SLAM ‼️🤯 #PostseasonWHAT A SCENE AT ROGERS CENTRE 🗣️ pic.twitter.com/6yXNsvSiyn— Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) October 5, 2025While Blue Jays fans were absolutely loving it, Yankees faithful had a much different reaction.

11 h. ago When will Toronto Blue Jays rookie phenom Trey Yesavage pitch next?

The Toronto Blue Jays found their newest postseason legend on Sunday.Rising up through the minor leagues at a rapid rate, the Jays' 2024 first-round draft pick, Trey Yesavage, has been one of the biggest stories of the entire postseason.Pitching 5.1 no-hit innings and earning a franchise-record 11 strikeouts in a postseason game, Yesavage put up a performance few Blue Jays fans would ever forget.But as much fun as his Game 2 performance in a win over the New York Yankees was for Blue Jays fans, it's hopefully one that the youngster will be able to build off of. After all, you don't win a World Series with just one good performance, but ideally a few strung together over the course of several playoff rounds.And in a sport where it's as much about your next game as the last one, fans are already wondering when they'll get to see their new star again.When can Yesavage pitch next for the Blue Jays?Although his first playoff game was historic, Yesavage has actual...

13 h. ago MLB legend David Ortiz eviscerates Yankees after Toronto Blue Jays slugfest

David Ortiz might not exactly be the biggest fan of the Toronto Blue Jays, but there's no doubt who he's cheering for in the American League Wild Card Series.Ortiz, a 10-time All-Star during his 14 seasons with the Boston Red Sox, seemed to be taking quite the pleasure in seeing the Blue Jays demolish the New York Yankees during their first two playoff games.While Toronto still needs to win one more game to advance to the American League Championship Series, they've certainly looked the part in their first two games. Scoring 23 runs over two days, Ortiz was in full-on trolling mode over his hated Yankees rivals."They can bring Jesus back, and they're still going to go to Cancun," Ortiz said on Fox's postgame show. "It's over. It's a wrap, just so you know. This Toronto Blue Jays lineup ain't playing around."Ortiz got the ability to chirp a few old rivals in Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez, both of whom were two of the biggest faces ...
