Despite not even being on the postseason roster, veteran left-hander Mark Buehrle left his mark on the American League Division Series.
The southpaw was ejected from the game in the 7th inning after rushing onto the field during one of two bench-clearing incidents between the Toronto Blue Jays and Texas Rangers.
He would return to the field to celebrate with his team after they defeated the Rangers 6-3 to move onto the ALCS.
Buehrle, 36, was not included on the ALDS roster after pitching 198 2/3 innings in the regular season, falling just short of 15 consecutive seasons of 200-plus innings pitched.
The veteran posted an ERA of 3.81 and a WHIP of 1.24 in 32 regular-season starts for the Blue Jays.
