Josh Donaldson’s mad dash moved the Blue Jays into the next round of the playoffs. Blue Jays president Mark Shapiro, who spent 24 years with Cleveland before joining Toronto last fall, said he’d already reached out to one former Indians colleague about a potential ALCS meeting. “You’re like ‘Oh gosh, let’s not have a technicality ruin this moment for us right here,”’ Martin said.

The Rangers hadn’t lost on a game-ending play since June 30 against the Yankees.
