Headline

Rice hits tiebreaking HR in ninth inning, Caballero also connects as Yankees beat Blue Jays 8-3

TORONTO -- Ben Rice hit a tiebreaking home run in the ninth inning, Jose Caballero added a three-run blast and the New York Yankees beat the Toronto Blue Jays 8-3 on Sunday for their sixth win in seven games.

The Yankees won for the seventh time when scoring the go-ahead run in the ninth inning or later.

Paul Goldschmidt hit an infield single off Braydon Fisher (2-2) to begin the ninth and advanced on Fishers throwing error. After Ryan McMahon ran for Goldschmidt, Rice drilled a 381-foot homer, his 19th.

Jasson Dominguez and Jazz Chisholm Jr . walked before Caballero connected off Tommy Nance for his sixth of the season.

The AL East-leading Yankees won 3-1 Saturday when Goldschmidt hit a tiebreaking homer in the ninth.

Camilo Doval (3-0) struck out two of the three batters he faced in the eighth for the win.

Torontos Davis Schneider hit a solo home run, his second, but it wasnt enough for the Blue Jays.

Blue Jays manager John Schneider was ejected for arguing with home plate umpire Steven Jaschinski after a balk call against Jeff Hoffman put Chisholm at third base with one out in the eighth. After the argument, Hoffman struck out Max Schuemann and Anthony Volpe to leave Chisholm stranded.

Volpe and Ali Sanchez had back-to-back RBI hits in the second. The Blue Jays answered with two-out RBI hits by Kazuma Okamoto in the third and Nathan Lukes in the fourth.

Volpes two-out single restored New Yorks lead in the top of the sixth, but Davis Schneider homered in the bottom half.

Blue Jays shortstop Andres Gimenez was scratched because of a sore left wrist. Toronto was without Vladimir Guerrero Jr . (back) for the second straight game.

Up next

Yankees: RHP Gerrit Cole (1-1, 2.45 ERA) is scheduled to start Tuesday against White Sox RHP Davis Martin (9-2, 2.41).

Blue Jays: Toronto begins a three-game series at Boston on Tuesday. Neither team had announced a starter.
