The Toronto Blue Jays edged past the New York Yankees 5-4 in a thrilling contest at Rogers Centre, marking their second consecutive victory in the AL East. After a scoreless first three innings, the Yankees took an early lead with two runs in the fourth. However, the Blue Jays responded powerfully with a four-run rally in the sixth, shifting the game in their favor.

Despite leading 5-3 heading into the seventh, the Blue Jays faced a potential setback when George Springer exited the game following a concerning collision at third base with Jazz Chisholm Jr. Fortunately, Springer was reported to be 'okay' after medical evaluation, easing concerns as he was a key contributor with two hits before his departure. This incident highlights the need for the Blue Jays, who are in the thick of the postseason race, to keep their star players healthy as they approach the All-Star break.
