Blue Jays Put MLB on Notice with Overpowering ALDS Sweep of Rangers

If that wasn't true before the Toronto Blue Jays completed a sweep of the Texas Rangers Sunday night with a 7-6 extra-inning win, it's certainly true now.

Toronto got a pair of home runs Sunday off the bats of first baseman Edwin Encarnacion and catcher Russell Martin. In all, seven Jays hitters have combined for nine home runs in the team's four postseason games.

The Blue Jays have won all four contests, blasting past the Baltimore Orioles in the American League Wild Card Game and casting aside the AL West-winning Rangers.

Now, as they train their sights on the American League Championship Series, they've served notice to the Junior Circuit and the rest of the baseball world: There's a threat looming north of the border.
