Blue Jays beat Rangers 6-3 to win wild Game 5

Bautista, Toronto's right fielder, homered with two outs against right-hander Sam Dyson after the Blue Jays tied the game in the four-run inning with help from three Texas errors.

"I just caught the ball and threw it back very casually", Martin admitted. At first DeShields was sent back to third. Not good, Blue Jays fans. A few drink containers still containing liquid made landed on the field.

Instead, for the most anticipated Blue Jays baseball in a generation, Canadian baseball fans had to deal with the first two games being played during work hours and not being called by Buck and Pat's familiar voices. Between the rarely seen rule pertaining to the catcher's throw back to the pitcher, the Rangers' three errors, benches clearing, fans throwing trash on the field, and Bautista's insane bat flip, the inning was one of epic proportions. Kevin Pillar then chopped a ball to first baseman Mitch Moreland, who chunked the throw into the dirt, which Andrus failed to scoop - not routine, but a play a major league shortstop usually makes.

The Rangers committed three errors to start the Blue Jays' seventh.

Texas then requested a review on next play, when Ben Revere grounded into a force at home. Banister complained about Pompey's slide to no avail.

As Edwin Encarnacion asked the crowd to calm down following the home run - more litter was being tossed - Dyson started talking to Encarnacion.

No, this one would have been a lot easier to explain if the storylines had stayed nice and clean; if Cole Hamels had finished his masterful performance, if the scribes had had another chance to weigh the impact of John Gibbons' inexplicable pitching decisions in Game 4; if the Jays had won this game in a slightly more orthodox matter.

Osuna replaced Sanchez with one out in the eighth after a walk to Moreland put runners at first and second, and he struck out left fielder Josh Hamilton and Andrus to end the threat.

His absence has left the Jays with just two left-handed pitchers on the roster: starter David Price and reliever Aaron Loup, who left the team earlier this week because of an unspecified family issue.

Where do you begin with a game that was supposed to represent baseball's highest objective and, in one surreal inning, morphed into The Bad New Bears in Breaking Training with a bit of Monday Night Raw mixed in. "I told the trainers in Texas, I'm going to pitch in the World Series".

Bautista called it "the most emotionally charged game I've ever played", in an on-field interview with Fox Sports after the game. Home teams now hold a 3-2 edge in those fifth games.
