While the first two games of the 2016 major league postseason featured pitching duels and late-inning heroics, Thursday's Game 1 of the AL Division Series between the Blue Jays and Rangers was over early.
The Rangers weren't able to mount a comeback after ace Cole Hamels was rocked for a career postseason-worst seven runs (six earned) in 3 1/3 innings. The outcome could have been different for Hamels, though, if not for defensive gaffes by Adrian Beltre and Ian Desmond that resulted in four runs for Toronto.
Instead, the Jays, behind Marco Estrada's gem, took a 1-0 series lead with a 10-1 win Thursday at Globe Life Park.
