The Toronto Blue Jays are on the verge of their first playoff series victory in nearly a decade, with their first chance to advance to the next round coming Tuesday evening in the Bronx after dominating their two home games against the New York Yankees.

Game 3 of the American League Division Series (ALDS) is set to start just after 8 p.m. ET.

Jeffrey Mizen, an Ontario-born Jays fan who lives in New York state, will be heading to Yankee Stadium on Tuesday, hoping to see something special unfold.

"I know they're gonna win," he told The Canadian Press. "They're playing fantastic."

On this side of the border, Toronto superfan Lesley Mak is also feeling "really good" about the team's potential to go deeper into the playoffs.

"The team of destiny feels unstoppable," Mak said via email.
