Blue Jays Extend AL East Lead Over Yankees With 7-1 Bronx Win

News summary

The Toronto Blue Jays delivered a commanding 7-1 victory over the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium, extending their dominance in the AL East and pushing their lead to four games. Kevin Gausman pitched an eight-inning gem, allowing only four hits and striking out five, marking his first win in nearly a month and showcasing his rejuvenated form. The Blue Jays' offense was led by Vladimir Guerrero Jr., who had a four-hit game including a homer and key RBI, and Bo Bichette contributed with a double and sacrifice fly. Yankees rookie Cam Schlittler struggled, lasting just 1 2/3 innings while facing a barrage of 24 foul balls and 66 pitches, unable to contain the Blue Jays' persistent offense. Aaron Judge returned to right field after a right elbow injury but had a subpar defensive game, including a misplayed throw that allowed a run. The Blue Jays' win underscored their strong season performance, having won eight of 11 meetings against the Yankees and establishing themselves as the team to beat in the division.
