After the Yankees tied the game 4-4 in the seventh inning, Toronto unleashed its offense against the Yankees&#8217; bullpen.\n\nSpringer had an outstanding performance at bat, connecting three hits in four turns. He started the comeback with a solo home run in the fourth inning against Fried and extended the lead to 9-5 with the grand slam against Luke Weaver, after a single by Ernie Clement that put the Blue Jays ahead.\n\nSpringer has 13 home runs this season.\n\nToronto won the first two games of the four-game series and moved within one game of the Yankees for the first time since before April 20th.\n\nThe Yankees struggled with runners in scoring position, hitting 2 for 17, while the Blue Jays were more effective, with 5 for 7.\n\nAfter a June with a 13-14 record, the Yankees fell to 10-14 against their American League East Division rivals.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>George Springer Drives in Blue Jays on Canada Day In an exciting celebration of Canada Day, the Toronto Blue Jays achieved a resounding 12-5 victory over the Yankees, closing to within a single game of the lead in the American League East Division.
