4-game sweep of Yanks finds Blue Jays alone in 1st this late for first time since '16

TORONTO — The Blue Jays have swept the Yankees with a four-game masterpiece and taken over first place in the American League East.

These are words you wouldn’t have believed three months ago. But the 2025 Blue Jays continue to amaze, now 49-38 after Thursday night’s 8-5 win at Rogers Centre and sitting alone atop the division this late in a season for the first time since Sept. 5, 2016.

“That shows you who we are as a team,” said George Springer, this team’s leader and star once again. “Even with guys down, we can go out and compete with one of the best teams in the game. Obviously, they’re a great team, so for us to come out and just be us was awesome.”

Aaron Boone says Yankees are ‘best team in the league’ after getting swept from first place

TORONTO — New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone was blunt in his assessment of his club after it was swept in a four-game series by the Toronto Blue Jays.

“It sucks when you get your ass kicked in a division-rival series on the road,” Boone said.

The Yankees were outscored 36-23 and played fundamentally poor baseball in all areas. Their infield defense was a mess. Their bullpen imploded. They finished 9-for-50 with runners in scoring position. Add all of that up, and the Yankees suffered their first four-game sweep in Toronto in franchise history.

They are now one game back of Toronto in the American League East. And they now must win five of their final six games against the Blue Jays this season to secure the tiebreaker, if it comes into play at the end of the year, over their division rival.
