The Toronto Blue Jays finished the job on Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium by winning Game 4 of the American League Division Series and advancing to the Championship Series.

The Blue Jays took an early lead as they had in every game of the series, and the New York Yankees could never come all the way back.

The Yankees tied the game in the third inning, but the Blue Jays regained the lead in the fifth inning and only added on from there. After eliminating the Yankees, Blue Jays' first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. joined the Fox Sports postgame show and had a message for New York alongside former Red Sox's Hall of Famer David Ortiz.

Guerrero, Big Papi Troll Yankees

The Fox Sports pre and post game show includes former Yankees Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez, and former Red Sox David Ortiz.

So, after the Blue Jays eliminated the Yankees from the playoffs on Wednesday night, Big Papi was more than happy to jump in with Guerrero to troll New York.

"Daaaaaaaa Yankees lose," Big Papi and Guerrero said over and over again with big smiles.

You can tell the win meant more than just any old playoff victory on Wednesday night, and Guerrero and Big Papi had a blast celebrating it.

The American League East is a tense division that has become extremely competitive and deep over the last few years. So, when the division foes meet up in the playoffs and get a chance to send each other home, it becomes particularly special.

In the ALDS, Guerrero put on an incredible performance for the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays' star hit .529 with three home runs, nine RBI and a 1.609 OPS in four games.

Now, the Blue Jays will wait to see the winner of the Seattle Mariners and Detroit Tigers series in the ALCS, and the Yankees playoff run is over.
