Boy do I love a good sweep. They made us wait three and a half weeks, but the Yankees pulled off a pivotal divisional sweep of the Blue Jays. This was the most action-packed of the bunch, with highlight reel plays, blunders, and everything in between. Let’s dig in.
The Yankees created some traffic early with an Aaron Judge infield single and a Giancarlo Stanton walk, but couldn’t cash in. Little did we know what kind of circus would follow over the next two half-innings.
Marcus Semien and Bo Bichette led off with a walk and single, creating early trouble for Michael King.
