Toronto Blue Jays fans ecstatic as team sweeps the Atlanta Braves on walk-off single: "Grab the BROOM boys" "Wow, wow, wow! What a game!"

The Toronto Blue Jays played a fantastic series against the Atlanta Braves over the weekend. They took the first two games of the three-game series, setting them up to complete the sweep on Sunday.

It was a great back-and-fourth game that saw the Blue Jays down one run in the ninth inning. This led to Danny Janses muscling out a single off of closer Raisel Iglesias, scoring two runs and winning the game.

It was a great ending to a great series by the Blue Jays. The series should give the team a significant boost of confidence, knowing they shut down one of the best teams in the league.

The win on Sunday improves Toronto's record to 24-16. They are in third place in the American League East, six games behind the Tampa Bay Rays. They could gain some ground with the Rays starting to cool off a bit.

Toronto Blue Jays fans are over the moon with their team's performance over the weekend. The Atlanta Braves are a great baseball team, and Toronto handled them with little problem.

Toronto could not have had a better weekend. They'll be heading into their next couple of series with some confidence.

Toronto Blue Jays have some key series coming up

While the Toronto Blue Jays had a great weekend, they can't soak it up too much. They have a few key series coming up that could really shake up the American League East.

They start a four-game series against the New York Yankees starting on Monday. The Yankees have been playing some good baseball lately. This could be a great series between the two clubs.

After that, the Blue Jays take on the Baltimore Orioles in a three-game series. With the young talent stacked across that roster, the Orioles are never easy to play. Their offense can run up the score in a matter of minutes and run away with the game.

Then, Toronto takes on the Tampa Bay Rays. This will surely be a test for the Blue Jays, as the Rays have nearly looked unstoppable to start the season. They hold the best record in all of baseball at 31-11.

If Toronto can have a successful next three series, they could change the landscape of the AL East standings.
