Blue Jays beat Yankees 5-2 in Game 4, move on to ALCS for the first time since 2016

Toronto Blue Jays is on the way to the American League Championship Series (ALCS) after defeating New York Yankees, 5-2, in Games 4 in Alds, Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium.

It marks the first time Blue Jays has reached ALCS since 2016, and they face the winner of Game 5 between Seattle Mariners and Detroit Tigers in their ALDS series.

After a Come-From-Bag victory for Yankees in Game 3 to stay alive in the series, Momentum was determined on the side of the Bronx Home Layer, which came into Game 4. That was especially the case with Cam Schlittler, the beloved Rookie in the Wild Card Round that closed Boston Red Sox to help his team get on in the post season.

But just as they have all series, scratched Blue Jays and itched their way to races, and it was Vladimir Guerrero Jr. who got the job done once again in the first place. As George jumps hit a leadoff double to open the game, Guerrero earned a single to the right field to get Toronto on the board first.

Blue Jay’s manager John Schneider worked with a Bullpen game, which means he would choose and choose the right matchups with his reliefs. He went with Louis Varland, who gave up the game-binding three-run Homer to Aaron referee on Tuesday night, as well as any game-winning solo shot for Jazz Chisholm Jr. to start the game.

Varland did his job, but Mason Fluharty let Yankees tie the game when Ryan McMahon, No. 9 hitter, turned on an offspeed tone height and sent it over the short porch in the right field to make it 1-1.

At the top of the fifth round, Toronto saw his eight and nine men, Ernie Clement and Andres Gimenez, giving their team an opportunity after they both hit singles to create runners in the corners with no one out. Jumper hit a sacrificial fly to resume the lead, although Blue Jays couldn’t get more there.

It was still too close to the comfort of Blue Jays when Yankees knocked on the door at the bottom of the sixth round with runners on the first and second – the first time they had runners in the scoring position all night. But Chisholm grounded out to the second base to end the threat of tying or even better for the home layer and taking the lead.

Then the most central moment came at the top of the seventh lap when Clement again appointed to get to the base. Gimenez hit a sharp lining in the next bat-bat, but it seemed to be an inning end double-play ball when it went straight to Chisholm. But Chisholm couldn’t handle it, and there were runners now on the second and third with one out.

Devin Williams entered the game and relieved Schlitter after he went 6.1 laps to his team. He got jumps to knock out, a massive swing-and-miss, as Yankees was close to getting away from a potentially deadly mistake.

But Nathan Lukes, the 31-year-old guy with high contact, escaped a single to center field where he scored Clement and Gimenez to make it a 4-1 game. Although only three races, it felt as more considering that Yankees was unable to get runners on the base consistently as if they were in play 3.

Blue Jays added one more at the top of the eighth lap thanks to Myles Straw connecting to a single to the right field to score Alejandro Kirk, but it would always be the rest of Torontos Bullpen who would really shut down this game.

Yankees threatened with runners at the bottom of the seventh and eighth lap, but Blue Jays were able to go back in dugout unharmed. The biggest pitch was Jeff Hoffman, Toronto’s closer, and worked out of a base -loaded jam after Austin Wells flew out to the left field.

Hoffman got the last three outs needed to start the celebration as Yankees and their fanbase were left stunned with their season complete.

Blue Jays ended the game with 12 total hits for Yankees’ five, and they used eight different jugs to get the job done.
