"Seana Baker came to Sunday's game from Whitby with her mother, Kerry Delaney. She said she was anxious heading into Sunday afternoon and when the Rays almost erased the Jays' early four-run lead in the 3rd inning but was confident the Blue Jays could pull off a win. "They've come back, had so many comebacks all season that I knew that when they had to win, I knew they were going to pull through and they were going to do it," Baker said."
"That belief was shared by Nav Singh, who said he's already got tickets to Game 2 of the best-of-five American League Division Series (ALDS) against the winner of the New York-Boston wildcard matchup, where the Jays will have home-field advantage. "They deliver amazing home field advantage. That's what we need. So we got it. They play great in this ballpark," he said. "I think we're going right to the [American League] finals.""
