NHL players celebrate Blue Jays' wild-card walk-off win
You wouldn't know there were nine preseason NHL games by the way many hockey players were tweeting Tuesday night.
The majority of the hockey world's attention was instead focused squarely on the American League wild-card game between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Baltimore Orioles.
When Edwin Encarnacion hit a three-run, walk-off home run in the bottom of the 11th inning, the celebration was on.
It's lit. @BlueJays
