TORONTO — Most of the Toronto Blue Jays were watching from the couch at home when their team clinched a playoff spot Saturday night. Toronto earned an AL wild card for the second straight season when Seattle lost 6-1 to Texas. "It was great," said All-Star closer Jordan Romano, who was at home with his wife. "It was like, 'Wow, for one day in the past six months I can get a good night of sleep, no stress.' It felt great. All the boys were texting, they were super happy. It was a good night." Toronto will play at AL Central champion Minnesota in a best-of-three playoff beginning Tuesday.
