Back in the homer dome with their rowdy fans, Troy Tulowitzki, Josh Donaldson and the Toronto Blue Jays quickly got into the swing of the AL Championship Series.
Tulowitzki and Donaldson connected in a six-run third inning Monday, and the Blue Jays roughed up Johnny Cueto for an 11-8 victory over the Royals that cut Kansas City's series lead to 2-1.
"I feel like we've played better at home, and I felt like the entire night we had great at-bats," Donaldson said. "Not just good at-bats -- great at-bats."
Ryan Goins also homered and had a two-run single one game after his misplayed pop fly set off Kansas City's winning rally Sunday.
The resilient Royals tried to come back this time too. Kendrys Morales capped a four-run surge with a two-run homer in the ninth before Roberto Osuna closed it out.
