On Wednesday night, the New York Yankees needed Gerrit Cole to have an ace-level start against the Toronto Blue Jays. Instead, hot-swinging Toronto was aggressive early and jumped on his fastball.

Though the Yankees did eventually come back to tie the game, Bo Bichette’s eighth inning homer sealed the victory for the Blue Jays. Now, the Yankees must face AL Cy Young contender Robbie Ray in this important series finale. The Yankees absolutely need to win this game.

New York still holds a one-game lead over the Boston Red Sox in the AL Wild Card. However, the Blue Jays are just a game out of the second Wild Card, while the Seattle Mariners trail by just a half-game.
