Briefly

Game 159: Red Sox @ Blue Jays - Bello vs Varland
"Well, the Astros were no help. Eh, I'd prefer to win and get in anyway."
"With Houston having a very large lead against the Athletics at the time of publish, it looks like it's up to Brayan Bello and company to take care of business on their own north of the border to shrink that magic number down from one to...well, you know. I don't want to say it outright just yet. Feels like a jinx."
Houston built a very large lead over the Athletics, shifting the clinching responsibility squarely onto Toronto. Brayan Bello and the Blue Jays must win tonight at Rogers Centre to reduce the playoff magic number. There is a reluctance to state the final magic number aloud to avoid jinxing the outcome. The preferred outcome remains a Blue Jays victory to secure entry on their own merits despite outside results. First pitch is scheduled for 7:07pm ET in Toronto, Ontario.
