Major League Baseball has witnessed power before — but never like this.
The 2025 Toronto Blue Jays are rewriting the postseason record books with a display of pure offensive destruction that has left fans and analysts speechless.
After Daulton Varsho’s thunderous home run, Toronto officially made history: 23 runs scored in their first two postseason games, the most ever by any team through two playoff contests. The stat, first reported by journalist Chris Kirschner, sent shockwaves across the baseball world.
“History made,” Kirschner wrote. “After Daulton Varsho’s HR, the Blue Jays have scored 23 runs in their first two postseason games this season. That is the most for any team through two postseason games.”
For a franchise that’s been chasing October glory for decades, this outburst feels like destiny catching up — and it’s happening fast.
Led by George Springer’s experience, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s raw power, and Bo Bichette’s electric bat speed, the Blue Jays have turned every inning into a fireworks show. They’ve hit for average, for power, and for pride — crushing fastballs, punishing sliders, and breaking opponents’ spirits with relentless energy.
The numbers tell part of the story, but the atmosphere tells the rest. Rogers Centre has been a madhouse — an ocean of blue roaring with every crack of the bat. Even opposing players have admitted that Toronto’s confidence feels different this time.
“They’re not just swinging the bats,” one AL scout said. “They’re sending a message. This lineup is fearless.”
In Game 1, the Jays erupted for 12 runs, fueled by a barrage of extra-base hits that left the opposing pitching staff in ruins. Then came Game 2 — another 11-run masterpiece, capped by Varsho’s missile of a home run that sent fans into a frenzy and the internet into overdrive.
This wasn’t just dominance — it was a statement.
For years, critics have questioned whether Toronto’s youthful core could rise to the occasion under October pressure. Those doubts are evaporating in real time. Guerrero Jr., who has carried the weight of expectation since his rookie year, looks reborn. Bichette, after a midseason slump, has rediscovered his rhythm when it matters most. And Varsho — the spark plug in the middle of the order — is emerging as one of the postseason’s breakout stars.
Even more striking is the chemistry. The dugout celebrations, the unity, the fire — everything screams of a team that’s not just playing well, but believing.
Manager John Schneider summed it up best after Game 2:
“This isn’t luck. This is what we’ve been building toward. These guys trust each other — and they’re hungry for more.”
Across social media, fans are calling it “The October Storm.” Analysts are already comparing the 2025 Jays to the legendary lineups of the late ’90s Yankees and early 2010s Dodgers — teams defined by intimidation as much as talent.
The question now isn’t whether the Blue Jays can win — it’s how far this historic tear will go.
Can they keep this pace? Will the power surge continue deep into the ALDS and beyond?
Whatever happens next, one thing is certain: baseball hasn’t seen a postseason explosion like this before. The Toronto Blue Jays aren’t just chasing wins — they’re chasing history.
And if their first two games are any indication, they might just catch it.
