Donaldson led off the 10th with a double into the right-center field gap, and then Matt Bush intentionally walked Edwin Encarnacion.
After Jose Bautista struck out, Russell Martin hit a grounder to shortstop Elvis Andrus, and Andrus tried to start a double play with a feed to Odor at second. Odor short-hopped his throw to first baseman Mitch Moreland and the ball skipped away, allowing Donaldson to dash home and beat Moreland's throw with a dive across the plate.
Toronto is headed to the AL Championship Series after beating Texas in an ALDS for a second straight year and will face the winner of the Indians-Red Sox series. The Blue Jays will travel to either Cleveland or Boston on Friday for Game 1.
The Indians lead 2-0, with Game 3 scheduled for Monday following a postponement Sunday.
More to come.
