The Toronto Blue Jays made sure to celebrate after punching their ticket to the ALCS on Wednesday night.

The Blue Jays were able to eliminate the New York Yankees in Game 4 of the ALDS, leaving Yankee Stadium with a 5-2 victory. It’s the organization’s first time heading to the ALCS since 2016, and, as you can imagine, the emotions were running high.

As soon as the team got back into the clubhouse, manager John Schneider delivered one of the most epic speeches you’ll ever hear.

“Every single one of you, f*cking bullpen game, Nathan Lukes, Myles Straw, all you motherf*ckers, it takes everybody, every day,” Schneider said.

“Start spreading the news, b*tches.”

It was quite the redemption for Schneider, who was taking some heat from fans after he decided to give Shane Bieber an early pull in Game 3. In Wednesday’s outing, however, he perfectly deployed his bullpen.

Schneider wasn’t the only member of the Blue Jays to give an NSFW quote, either. Kevin Gausman, who picked up a win in Game 1 of this series, didn’t seem to care whatsoever that he was doing a live interview with Sportsnet.

“We’re not done yet, we’re f*cking fired up,” Gausman said to Hazel Mae. “We’re ready to go. I don’t give a sh*t. We’re f*cking going, let’s go. F*ck yeah, let’s go Canada.”

As if the Yankees and their fan base weren’t already frustrated enough with the result, the Blue Jays chose to rub the loss in a bit more by playing Frank Sinatra’s hit song “New York, New York.”

The Jays will now be off until Sunday as they await the winner of a series between the Detroit Tigers and Seattle Mariners to determine who they will play in the ALCS. The Tigers and Mariners, who are currently tied in their series at two apiece, will play Game 5 on Friday evening.
