TORONTO – The Toronto Blue Jays are heading to their eighth American League Championship Series — and their first since 2016.

The Blue Jays beat the New York Yankees 5-2 last night at Yankee Stadium to seal the AL Division Series in four games.

Toronto now looks ahead to the ALCS with Game 1 set for Sunday at Rogers Centre against the Detroit Tigers or Seattle Mariners.

Tickets for the best-of-seven series go on sale this morning.

The Tigers and Mariners are tied 2-2 heading into a decisive Game 5 on Friday.

Because Toronto finished the regular season with the best record in the American League, it has home-field advantage up to the World Series.
