Blue Jays playoffs schedule 2022: How to watch on TV and live stream

The Toronto Blue Jays are back in the MLB playoffs after narrowly missing the playoffs in 2021

The Toronto Blue Jays missed the playoffs by one game in 2021 but this year, they are back in the playoffs after winning the first American League Wild Card spot.

As a result, they will have home field advantage in the AL Wild Card series with all three games being played at home against the Seattle Mariners. Here is what their playoff schedule could look like and how to watch them on TV.

Toronto Blue Jays playoff schedule

Since the Blue Jays do not have a bye in the Wild Card round, they will play their first playoff game on Friday Oct. 7. The games will be played on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday with all three games in Toronto.

Due to the lockout to start the season, the regular season schedule was altered slightly to accommodate all 162 games and the postseason is no different.

If the Blue Jays make it to the ALDS and play in all five games, they will play on Oct. 11, Oct. 13, Oct. 15, Oct. 16, and Oct. 17. It will still follow the 2-2-1 format but there will be no travel day between Games 4 and 5, as there was in previous years. For the AL, they will have off days after Game 2 and Game 3.

If they reach the ALCS, they would start play on Oct. 19 through Oct. 26, if they play all seven games. They would have a travel day between Games 2 and 3 but not between Games 5 and 6, unlike previous years.

If they make it to the World Series, the regular 2-3-2 schedule will stay the same and the travel days would as well (after Game 2 and after Game 5). The World Series starts on October 28 and would end no later than November 5.
