The Toronto Blue Jays are heading to the ALCS for the first time since 2016. The New York Yankees' dreams of winning their first World Series since 2009 will be delayed another year.
Toronto found success in the series because it was able to get ahead of New York early and often, and that continued in Game 4. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. singled in a run in the top of the first. New York responded with a solo home run in the top of the third. Toronto took the lead back in the top of the fifth with a sac fly. After that, the Blue Jays added three insurance runs through the eighth inning. New York tried to spark a late rally with an Aaron Judge RBI in the bottom of the ninth, but that's where it ended.
Toronto had a bullpen day in Game 4. The Blue Jays used eight different pitchers in order to earn their starting pitchers extra rest. Toronto's Seranthony Dominguez was credited with the win as Jeff Hoffman earned the save. Eric Lauer, Yariel Rodriguez and Brendon Little all earned holds. New York's Cam Schlittler was impressive, allowing just two earned runs over 6.1 innings.

Clement then lines one to right field for a single. Giminez hit a rocket up the middle, and Chisholm wasn't able to field it. Instead of a possible inning-ending double play, it turns into first and third with one out, and Schlittler's night is done.

Bottom of the Fifth Inning -- Blue Jays 2, Yankees 1
8:43 p.m. -- Dominguez's day is done, and Eric Lauer comes out of the pen for Toronto. He gets Wells to pop out to shortstop. Volpe goes down swinging on three pitches. McMahon grounded out to second, and Lauer only needed nine pitches to get three outs in the fifth.
Top of the Fifth Inning -- Blue Jays 2, Yankees 1
8:36 p.m. -- Ernie Clement singled to left to start the frame. Gimenez grounds a ball up the middle, just out of reach of Chisholm, and Clement advanced to third.
