My condolences: Toronto blue Jays HC (John Schneider) and one year old baby die in car crash…..
Sometimes, you don’t need a degree in atmospheric sciences to know rain is on the way.
Sunday’s game between the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Yankees went into a rain delay, and this striking photo made it immediately clear why.
The action came to a halt in the bottom of the eighth inning with the two teams tied at 3-3.
Toronto jumped ahead 2-0 in the second before New York tied it up in the sixth.
Juan Soto put the Bronx Bombers ahead on a solo homer in the seventh, but Alejandro Kirk’s sacrifice fly erased New York’s advantage.
The Yankees need the win to keep pace with the Baltimore Orioles, who took down the Cleveland Guardians 9-5 earlier in the day.
That put Baltimore into first place in the American League East with a 0.5-game lead.
He became just the fourth Yankees player with three or more 40-homer seasons, joining Babe Ruth (11), Lou Gehrig (five) and Mickey Mantle (four).
The drive was the third-longest of Judge’s career and the second-longest in the major leagues this season behind Jorge Soler’s 478-footer for San Francisco at Colorado on July 21. Judge has six homers against Gausman.
Judge’s two-run, first-inning homer off Kevin Gausman, a 477-footer drive halfway up the left-field bleachers, gave him a big league-best 101 RBIs.
“If it came with a win tonight that have been pretty sweet,” Judge said.
