The New York Yankees have been scuffling of late but a series win this weekend in Toronto would cure some unwarranted ills the Pinstripes have had the past few weeks. Ivan Nova gets the "W" as Blue Jays David Price was cruising with a 3-0 lead in the 8th when the "Fasten Seat Belt" Lights came on as some unexpected turbulence entered the fray and just like that the Pinstripes answer the call!
After Nova gave up a crooked three in the bottom half of the 3rd highlighted by a "Joey Bats" RBI Double the Blue Birds spotted Price with a 3-0 lead. Price ran with that lead through seven strong as it looked like and felt like the 'Jays would move to a dozen straight in the winer's circle.
Then in the 8th with A-Rod flying out and one out it was Mark Teixeira and "Bob the Builder" McCann going back to back singles off Price to get ducks on the pond with one out. Chase Headley then goes ground-rule double chasing Price with a 3-1 'Jays lead with Ducks at 2nd and 3rd.
Enter 'Jays reliever Aaron Sanchez as my 2015 Skipper of the Year Yanks Joe Girardi takes Chris Young out and plus him with the vet Carlos Beltran. Beltran with the count 1-2 and 1 out takes Sanchez deep in what looked to be a 2-seamer for a three-run blast and the Pinstripes led 4-3. Yankees Captain Save-A-Game Andrew Miller would then come in the 9th to get his 26th save and the 'Jays, Price, and the Rogers Centre was in complete silence as though they didn't see what just happened.
New York moves back in 1st place at 63-51 while the 'Jays fall back to 2nd place at 64-53 with an eleven game win streak stopped...Team 27 Chips strikes!
