Toronto recovered after blowing a five-run lead the previous night to win the Division Series 3-1 and will host ALCS Game 1 against either the Detroit Tigers or Seattle Mariners. Ryan McMahon homered for the Yankees, who were eliminated and remain without a World Series title since 2009 despite Aaron Judge's strong postseason performance.
