Pitching Dominance
A dominant pitching performance by the Blue Jays bullpen limited the Yankees to just three hits.
It marked the fifth time this season that New York was held to three or fewer hits in a game, according to game statistics.
Rule 5 draft pick Spencer Miles led the pitching staff with a career-high 4 1/3 innings, allowing two hits while striking out six and walking one.
Braydon Fisher and rookie Adam Macko each pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings before Miles took over the mound.
Tyler Rogers induced a double-play grounder from Aaron Judge to end the eighth inning, and Jeff Hoffman pitched a perfect ninth inning to record his fourth save of the season.
Early Lead and Key Hits
Toronto took an early lead in the first inning when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. walked, stole second base, and scored on a double by Daulton Varsho.
Guerrero reached base three times in the game, including two walks and a fifth-inning single off New York starter Carlos Rodón.
Rodón absorbed the loss to drop his record to 0-2 after giving up one run and three hits over five innings.
Camilo Doval surrendered the home run to Springer in the seventh inning on a 2-2 slider that landed in the left-field seats.
