<p>Vladimir Guerrero Jr. likes to put on a show in the Bronx. He did so with power and speed Tuesday night in the early part of Game 3 during the Toronto Blue Jays' American League Division Series against the New York Yankees.</p>
<p>He followed up a first-inning home run to center field with a slide for the ages in the third inning.</p>
<p>After outfielder Davis Schneider doubled to start the top of the third, Yankees starting pitcher Carlos Rodón intentionally walked Guerrero, who has now deposited a homer in each game of the ALDS.</p>
<p>A single from Daulton Varsho plated Schneider and advanced Guerrero to second. From there, Guerrero was fleet of foot with an October play that could go down in Blue Jays history.</p>

<p>Guerrero, who has dropped weight to transform his body since he debuted for the Jays in 2019, made a bee-line for home after Ernie Clement pulled a single past the outstretched glove of Yankees third baseman Ryan McMahon into left field.</p>

<p>Guerrero rounded third and then, at a least a full step before the circle of home-plate dirt, took flight. Soaring through the air like Superman, Guerrero defied gravity for a moment before all 6 feet, 245 pounds of him came crashing down for a run-scoring slide.</p>
<p>His left hand, equipped with a red and blue sliding mitt, reached the plate before the tag, rendering an impressive throw from Cody Bellinger obsolete.</p>
<p>Guerrero knew it. He immediately bounced up and emphatically clapped his hands together, giving himself a high-five before he received one from outfielder Anthony Santander.</p>
<p>Maybe that exchange transferred super power to Santander, who slapped a hard-hit single into right for two additional runs.</p>
<p>The Blue Jays' four-run third inning gave them a 6-1 lead.</p>
<p>Unfortunately for Toronto, the Yankees erased it by the end of the fourth, in large part thanks to a towering, 373-foot, three-run home run from Aaron Judge.</p>
<p>As for Guerrero, his dominance against the Yankees, particularly on the road, is special. His 427-foot dinger to center in the first inning Tuesday was his 17th career home run in Yankee Stadium.</p>
<p>Guerrero singled in the top of the fourth, making him 8 for 10 in the series.</p>
