Aaron Sanchez leads Blue Jays to playoffs, home field in Wild Card

The Toronto Blue Jays are playoff-bound for the second year in a row after a 2-1 win over the Boston Red Sox in the final game of the regular season.

Toronto will host the Baltimore Orioles at the Rogers Centre on Tuesday after the Detroit Tigers were eliminated by the Atlanta Braves.

Aaron Sanchez had the most important outing of his career in the biggest moment, throwing seven innings of two-hit ball and allowing just one earned run. The dominant right-hander lowered his season ERA to an even 3.00 and struck out six batters on 97 pitches (62 strikes).
