The visiting Seattle Mariners, who were down 8-1 in the fifth inning, came all the way back to defeat the Toronto Blue Jays 10-9 on Saturday to win their best-of-three American League wild-card playoff series in two straight games at Rogers Centre.

The Mariners, who won Game 1 on Friday 4-0, advance to play the Houston Astros in the best-of-five Division Series that starts Tuesday in Texas.

Blue Jays centre fielder George Springer was carted off the field after he collided with shortstop Bo Bichette in the eighth inning.

With two out and the bases loaded, J.P. Crawford hit a blooper into shallow centre field. Springer and Bichette went hard after the ball, but it landed as the two collided.
