"Across nearly a half-century of Blue Jays baseball, the team has made it to the post-season on 11 occasions including this year. This Sunday, the Blue Jays begin the American League Championship Series (ALCS) a playoff rung that Toronto last reached in 2016. They'll be up against the Seattle Mariners, who knocked out the Detroit Lions on Friday night. The Jays beat the Yankees in the American League Division Series (ALDS) to get to this next step in the playoffs."
"In 1985, the Blue Jays won 99 regular-season games a feat never since repeated by Toronto and headed to the post-season for the first time. The team scored the fourth-most runs in the league that year and six Blue Jays had double-digit home run totals. (The current Blue Jays were similarly ranked fourth in runs scored during the 2025 regular season. Four Toronto players had 20 or more home runs, while four others had lower, two-digit HR totals.)"
The Toronto Blue Jays have reached the postseason 11 times, including 2025. The 2025 team begins the American League Championship Series against the Seattle Mariners on Sunday, the club's first ALCS appearance since 2016. Toronto advanced by beating the New York Yankees in the American League Division Series. The franchise has reached the ALCS seven previous times: 1985, 1989, 1991, 1992, 1993, 2015 and 2016. In 1985 the Blue Jays won 99 regular-season games, scored the fourth-most runs in the league, and had six players with double-digit home runs; Toronto lost the seven-game ALCS to the Kansas City Royals.
