Toronto sweeps its Division Series with a 7 – 6, 10-inning win over the Rangers. Toronto takes a quick lead on homers by Edwin Encarnacion and Russell Martin in the 1st, but Texas comes back with homers by Elvis Andrus and Rougned Odor, then takes a short-lived lead on a two-run double by Mitch Moreland in the 6th. The Blue Jays tie it up on a passed ball, however, and in Matt Bush’s third inning on the mound, Josh Donaldson scores the winning run from second base when Odor throws wildly to first in attempting to turn a double play.
