Big weekend for the Blue Jays: while the Orioles were in town, John Schneider's men swept the Baltimore club in a three-game series.
Today, it was on the heels of an 11-2 win.
Shane Bieber pitched six innings and gave up just one run. So he was the pitcher the club needed on the heels of an interesting playoff run for the Blue Jays.
And all the while, the relievers held their own.
Offensively, George Springer, Addison Barger, Ernie Clement and Joey Loperfido stepped up. The club put the ball in the safe 14 times, which says a lot about the game.
In short, it went well.

At the moment, the Blue Jays are three and a half games ahead of the Yankees and six ahead of the Red Sox. They have the tie-breaking advantage over both rivals, who will face off tonight on the heels of Sunday night baseball.
The Blue Jays' magic number for winning the division is 10.
Making the playoffs at this point will be a formality for Toronto. The Toronto club has a magic number of five to make the playoffs. With two weeks to go, this will be made official shortly, if all goes well.
Remember that tomorrow, Trey Yesavage will be the Blue Jays' starter. The club's top prospect will make his Major League debut.
