NEW YORK —
AL East champion Toronto took the division series 3-1, and it will host Game 1 in the best-of-seven ALCS on Sunday against the Detroit Tigers or the Seattle Mariners.
Those teams are set to decide their playoff series Friday in Game 5 at Seattle.
Ryan McMahon homered for the wild-card Yankees, unable to stave off elimination for a fourth time this postseason as they failed to repeat as AL champions.
Despite a terrific playoff performance from Aaron Judge following his previous October troubles, the 33-year-old star slugger remains without a World Series ring. New York is still chasing its 28th title and first since 2009.
