Jose Bautista and the rest of his Toronto Blue Jays teammates appeared pretty loose around the batting cage prior to a potential elimination Game 5 at Rogers Centre on Wednesday afternoon.

Bautista, hitting from the left side of the plate during batting practice, cranked a home run into the bullpen. The shot was in response to Josh Donaldson's earlier left-handed homer into the seats, according to Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.

Toronto - down 3-1 in the series after winning Game 4 - is looking to become the second team in MLB history to come back from a 3-0 deficit.
