"After Wednesday nights 13-4 win behind a strong start from Shane Bieber, the Blue Jays are looking to become just the fourth team to come back from an 0-2 deficit in LCS history, but the odds might not all be stacked up against them. There's a reason Toronto was one of the toughest and most successful teams all season, and this isn't just going to disappear in the span of a week."
"Can the Blue Jays repeat their Seattle sweep from May to get back into the series? In a three-game set these teams played from May 9-11 this year, the Blue Jays swept the Mariners while outscoring them by a margin of 21-7. If Toronto wants to come back in this ALCS, it's literally mandatory that they at least take two out of the three road games this series. Otherwise, it's another year of disappointment and back to square one next season."
The Blue Jays lost the first two ALCS games at home and traveled to Seattle for games 3-5. A 13-4 Game 3 win behind Shane Bieber keeps a comeback possible, with the team aiming to become the fourth in LCS history to recover from an 0-2 deficit. Toronto swept Seattle in May, outscoring the Mariners 21-7, demonstrating strong road success. Winning at least two of the three Seattle games is essential to extend the season. Additions like Addison Barger and Ernie Clement provided offensive depth, and the bullpen allowed zero runs during the May sweep.
