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 Tigers on Friday night.
The Jays beat the Yankees in the American League Division Series (ALDS) to get to this next step in the playoffs.
The Blue Jays have been to the ALCS on seven previous occasions — in 1985, 1989, from 1991 to 1993, and again in 2015 and 2016.
Here's a recap of how those past squads fared when they got there.
