Veteran Toronto Blue Jays ace Shane Bieber is yet to make his first postseason start with the team, but the former Cy Young winner won't be complaining as the team made it two wins in two to take a 2-0 lead against the New York Yankees in the American League Division series.

After a blowout 10-1 win in Game 1 on Saturday, Bieber's wife, Kara Maxine, showed support for the team and husband by wearing a Blue Jays jersey with the All-Star pitcher's number for Game 2 at Rogers Centre.
In one of her Instagram stories from the game on Sunday, Kara posed alongside other Blue Jays players' partners in coordinated dress. Fellow pitcher Kevin Gausman's wife Taylor stood next to Kara in a picture shared by her on Instagram.
"We were supposed to be here together," Kara captioned her story.

While Blue Jays rookie Trey Yesavage made a sizzling postseason debut to hold the Yankees scoreless over 5.1 innings in Game 2, the Blue Jays will have Bieber on the mound as the NL East winners look to sweep the division rivals in their backyard on Monday.

Chaitanya Prakash is an editor who covers US Sports at Sportskeeda. His first brush with sportswriting was in 2012 when the greatest football manager of all time, Sir Alex Ferguson, bid farewell to the beautiful game.
Although having started out professionally as a cricket writer in 2022, Chaitanya's curiosity and indiscriminate interest in all sports in general eventually introduced him to America's favorite pastime.
While Chaitanya's favorite player from the current crop is the dynamic Venezuelan Ronald Acuna Jr., his all-time favorite, however, is Pedro Martinez, for his self-belief and consistency. He also rates Jose Bautista's iconic bat flip in 2015 as his favorite moment in baseball history.
Chaitanya specializes in reporting on technical aspects of the game or analyzing patterns behind specific plays. He also likes pondering over players' self-assessments following the conclusion of a game as it helps him get an idea of how they think about the sport in general.
When not cheering for his favorites across sports, Chaitanya likes being transported to the past through a good war documentary or a historical documentary in general.
