In long extra ending games it boils down to who makes the critical mistakes. Both the Mariners and Tigers had runners on base with one or no outs and blew chances. The Tigers blew something like 2-3 chances. The Mariners seized on their second chance.

Thankfully Seattle won’t have to face Tarik Skubal two times in the same series. And Seattle knows they can win in Toronto, they swept the Jays in Toronto in the WC round two years ago.

Two years is a long time in Baseball. For example, that scary 23 year old Pitcher that Toronto has was likely in college two years ago. He likely starts Game 2 for Toronto, so if Seattle doesn’t win Game 1, they are most likely going to face every Toronto pitcher except one, twice.
