Yankees Suffer Fourth Straight Loss to Blue Jays

The Toronto Blue Jays defeated the New York Yankees 9-2, marking the Yankees' fourth straight loss and a significant slump for the team. George Springer led the Blue Jays with two three-run homers, while José Berríos pitched seven effective innings. Carlos Rodón continued his struggles, allowing eight runs over five innings and seeing his ERA inflate to 4.42. This loss dropped the Yankees out of first place in the AL East, now trailing Baltimore. The Yankees' starting pitchers have a combined 8.65 ERA over the last 11 games, contributing to their recent downturn. Aaron Boone remains confident that the team can improve, despite the current challenges.
