Blue Jays' Roberto Osuna: Earns win in ALDS finale Sunday

Osuna pitched two innings to pick up the win in Sunday's extra-innings affair with the Rangers. He struck out two in the final game of the ALDS.

Analysis:

Osuna has been practically unhittable since the playoffs began. The closer has pitched in three of the team's four postseason affairs, notching a win and a save while allowing just one hit and recording six strikeouts over five innings. In fact, Osuna's numbers are almost identical to what they were through the first four games of last season's playoff run. However, he struggled against Kansas City in the 2015 ALCS, including getting slapped with the series-ending loss. In addition, the right-hander hasn't been overwhelmingly impressive this season against either of the Jays' possible ALCS opponents, the Red Sox and Indians.
