First pitch is scheduled for 2:03 p.m. PT on Monday at Rogers Centre, airing on FOX and streaming live on the FOX ONE app. 

Keep reading for live scores, updates and highlights as the Seattle Mariners take on the Toronto Blue Jays for Game 2 of ALCS.

Mariners win Game 2, 10-3, to take 2-0 series lead in ALCS - 5:32 p.m.

For the first time in franchise history, the Seattle Mariners are up two games in the AL Championship Series. A 10-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday send the series back to Seattle with the Mariners two wins away from their first ever trip to the World Series.

Seattle led 1-0 and 2-1 in the ALCS in the 1995 playoffs against the Cleveland Indians, but lost the series in six games. They led the 2000 ALCS 1-0 before losing three straight against the New York Yankees and the series in six, and trailed the entirety of the 2001 ALCS against the Yankees.

Game 3 is set for Wednesday at T-Mobile Park with George Kirby on the mound for Seattle.

Mariners are three outs away from a Game 2 victory - 5:15 p.m.

Emerson Hancock entered to pitch the eighth inning for Seattle and looked a little shaky, throwing six straight balls to open his outing. While he walked Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Alejandro Kirk in the inning, Hancock kept Toronto off the board as Seattle takes a seven-run lead to the ninth inning.

Miles Mastrobuoni replaces Josh Naylor at the plate as a pinch-hitter. Naylor showed discomfort away a couple different moments throughout the game for Seattle and gets an early exit.

J.P. Crawford makes it 10 for Seattle - 4:48 p.m.

Yariel Rodríguez walked the bases loaded after Josh Naylor's two-run home run in the seventh inning. He exited without recording an out with J.P. Crawford coming to the plate for Seattle.

A sacrifice fly to left field by Crawford off Chris Bassitt scored Eugenio Suárez from third base for a 10-3 Mariners lead.

Randy Arozarena struck out swinging to end the inning without further damage for Toronto. 

Ontario native Josh Naylor extends Mariners lead to 9-3 - 4:30 p.m.

Mississauga, Ontario native Josh Naylor has given the Mariners a six-run lead in the seventh inning.

A two-run home run by Naylor off Blue Jays reliever Braydon Fisher makes it a 9-3 Mariners lead.

Jorge Polanco wasn't the one to drive in runs for Seattle this time, but he did author the single ahead of Naylor that made it a two-run blast for the Mariners.

Toronto's offense has disappeared again in Game 2. They've managed just one hit since the second inning with Eduard Bazardo and Carlos Vargas combining for three scoreless innings in relief.

Mitch Garver, J.P. Crawford make it a 7-3 Seattle lead - 4:05 p.m.

Mitch Garver delivered a pinch-hit lead-off triple off Blue Jays left-hander Mason Fluharty in the sixth inning as center fielder Daulton Varsho got turned around and misplayed the ball off the wall.

J.P. Crawford flipped a one-out single to left field off Fluharty to score pinch-runner Leo Rivas for a 7-3 lead.

That prompted another move to the bullpen for Blue Jays manager John Schneider, who turned to right-hander Braydon Fisher for the top of Seattle's order.

Meanwhile, Eduard Bazardo pitched two scoreless innings in relief of starter Logan Gilbert for the Mariners.

Garver joins Vince Coleman, Mark McLemore, Al Martin and Julio Rodríguez as Mariners with triples in the postseason. 

Jorge Polanco puts Mariners back in front - 3:40 p.m.

Another massive hit in October for Jorge Polanco and the Mariners.

A three-run home run off Toronto reliever Louis Varland gives the Mariners a 6-3 lead in the fifth inning.

In a very similar inning to the first when Julio Rodríguez took Trey Yesavage deep, the Mariners put two runners on with no outs before manager John Schneider turned to the bullpen. After a Rodríguez strikeout, Polanco turned a 98 mph fastball from Varland and drove it to deep center field for a home run and a three-run lead.

Nearly every hit Polanco has had in the postseason for Seattle and driven in runs, and in big moments. He has seven hits in the playoffs and six of them have driven in runs for the Mariners.

Randy Arozarena singled and advanced to second on a throwing error from shortstop Andrés Giménez. Schneider intentionally walked Raleigh to keep him from being the one to get them, and Polanco delivered instead.

Eduard Bazardo replaces Gilbert, Cal Raleigh shaken up - 3:25 p.m.

Logan Gilbert's start indeed came to a close after just three innings for Seattle as Eduard Bazardo entered in relief for the fourth inning.

Gilbert threw 58 pitches with 39 strikes, allowing three runs (two earned) on five hits with a walk and two strikeouts. Bazardo quickly sat down the Blue Jays down in order in the fourth on 11 pitches, but the first out saw Raleigh in pain.

A chopper in front of the mound saw Raleigh make a great play to field the ball and throw out Clement at first. However, Raleigh had to contort his body to make the throw to first and briefly stayed down showing pain.

Raleigh stayed in the game and didn't show any ill-effects through the rest of the inning.

Logan Gilbert with a clean third inning - 3:12 p.m.

After two difficult innings to start for Logan Gilbert, he bounced back with a clean third inning for Seattle.

Pitching on just two days rest since his relief efforts in Game 5 of the ALDS, Gilbert got Addison Barger to ground out to second, Alejandro Kirk to fly out to right, and a strikeout of Daulton Varsho for his first clean inning of Game 2.

Gilbert is up to 58 pitches with 39 strikes with three runs allowed (two earned) on five hits with a walk and two strikeouts.

It still seems unlikely that Gilbert will get a third trip through the Blue Jays order. Eduard Bazardo has begun to warm up in the Mariners bullpen.

Like Gilbert, Trey Yesavage finally has his first clean inning for Toronto in the top of the fourth. Dominic Canzone, Victor Robles and J.P. Crawford go down in order for Seattle.

Tie game in the second inning - 2:57 p.m.

Nathan Lukes delivered a two-out RBI single to right field off Logan Gilbert in the second inning to tie Game 2 at 3-3 through two innings.

Ernie Clement singled and advanced to third on groundouts from Davis Schneider and Andrés Giménez.

Where home plate umpire Doug Eddings aided the Mariners in the first inning with a missed call, he missed two more to help the Blue Jays in the second.

A 2-2 fastball and a 3-2 slider from Gilbert both appeared to find the strike zone, but were called balls by Eddings as George Springer walked with two outs. While Gilbert should have been out of the inning, Lukes singled to right field to score Clement to even the game at 3-3.

Gilbert got Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to ground out to second base to get out of the jam without further damage after a nine-pitch battle.

Blue Jays trim the Seattle lead to a run - 2:35 p.m.

The Blue Jays also managed to deliver in the first inning to cut into the Mariners lead.

George Springer ripped a lead-off double off the wall in left-center field a pitch after hooking a potential home run just foul down the left field line against Seattle starter Logan Gilbert.

An infield chopper from Nathan Lukes forced a tough play for first baseman Josh Naylor, who shoveled a throw wide of Gilbert covering first as Springer scored the first run for Toronto.

Lukes advanced to second on the error as well and moved to third on a groundout from Vladimir Guerrero Jr. A two-out single from Alejandro Kirk scored Lukes as Seattle's lead was trimmed to just a run, 3-2, at the end of the first.

Julio Rodríguez three-run homer gives Mariners the lead - 2:10 p.m.

Julio Rodríguez hit a three-run home run off Trey Yesavage before the Mariners recorded their first out for a quick 3-0 lead in Game 2 in Toronto.

Rodríguez crushed a hanging splitter from the Blue Jays rookie and drove it into the left field seats for an early haymaker for Seattle.

A little help from home plate umpire Doug Eddings aided the Mariners in grabbing the early lead.

Yesavage believed he had struck out Arozarena with a 1-2 slider that painted the outside corner of the plate only for Eddings to call it ball two. Even Arozarena took two steps toward the Seattle dugout as he believed the same. Instead, Yesavage hit Arozarena with a pitch to put the lead-off runner aboard.

Yesavage followed with a walk of Cal Raleigh to put two on with no outs before Rodríguez's blast gave Seattle the lead.

Seattle Mariners to send 2024 All-Star pitcher Logan Gilbert to the mound for the Game 2 start – 12:10 p.m.

After Bryce Miller's terrific six-inning effort in Game 1, Gilbert will be making the start on just two days rest and after throwing two innings in relief as part of Seattle's 15-inning, Game 5 victory over the Detroit Tigers in the decisive game of the ALDS. 

Gilbert won Game 3 of the ALDS for Seattle, pitching six innings while allowing only one run on four hits with seven strikeouts.

Who is starting for the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 2 of the ALCS?

The Blue Jays will send rookie Trey Yesavage to the mound, who made just three starts in the regular season and had a tremendous effort in the ALDS against the New York Yankees.

Yesavage no-hit the Yankees through 5 ⅓ innings with a walk and 11 strikeouts in his postseason debut in Game 2 of the ALDS.
