[sc name=”josh-benjamin-banner” ]
The New York Yankees turned in another gritty comeback win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday, including eight strong innings from Gerrit Cole. Throw in Gary Sanchez’s pinch-hit home run and some Aroldis Chapman drama, and the 3-2 win has the Yankees one victory away from a sweep.
New York is still in third place in the AL East. Following a Tampa Bay Rays loss and Boston Red Sox win, the Yankees are seven games out of first.
