Blue Jays face tall task heading to Texas

The two-game deficit has been overcome before, but it won't be easy. Teams that win the first two games of a Division Series are 42-5. Home teams that lost the first two games of a five-game postseason series (including League Championship Series) are 2-27.

"So hopefully this will be ours, down 2-0, come back and win the series.
