Vladimir Guerrero Jr. led the Toronto Blue Jays to an 8-1 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks, going 2-for-2 with three RBIs and three walks, as the team remains two games behind the division-leading Yankees, who are amid a losing streak. Guerrero, who signed a 14-year, $500 million contract extension in April, has thrived batting third in the lineup, posting a .301 career average and .917 OPS in that spot. He continues a strong June with a .315 average, seven doubles, 11 RBIs, and one home run.

The AL East race remains competitive with the Blue Jays, Yankees, Rays, and Red Sox all in playoff contention.
