Aaron Judge broke the tie with a two-run single in the ninth inning, Juan Soto and Giancarlo Stanton hit solo home runs, and the New York Yankees came from behind to defeat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-4 on Wednesday.
This win stopped the Blue Jays’ four-game winning streak and prevented the Yankees from being swept for the first time this season. Blue Jays manager John Schneider was ejected from the game for arguing with the umpire.
Victor González earned the win, and Clay Holmes secured his seventh save of the season. Aaron Judge’s hit, after going 0 for 12 against Toronto, was crucial for the Yankees.
Yankees manager Aaron Boone described it as a significant moment for both Judge and the team. Juan Soto had an impressive game, contributing three hits and driving in two runs.
Toronto manager John Schneider mentioned that reliever Chad Green was unavailable due to a sore shoulder. Despite the loss, the Blue Jays finished their first homestand of the season with a 6-3 record.
The Yankees were trailing 4-1 until Soto and Stanton’s home runs in the late innings sparked their comeback.
