“So good,”after driving in all five runs of the 5-3 Yankees victory over the Blue Jays. “Especially versus those guys; it’s a huge series for us. Every time I get an opportunity, I try to do my thing and help. That is the mentality for me.”

Aaron Boone had this to say about his team after their 5-3 win over Toronto!

“I caution that we’re 30 games into this,” “I do feel like in every area, we’re strong -- and probably more complete than in previous years. I think [we’re] the whole package -- we really feel like we can win a game a lot of different ways.”

While Gleyber Torres provided the offense for New York for the team that wears the pinstripes Jameson Taillon who started the game for New York for the team that wears the pinstripes pitched 5.1 innings gave up 2 earned runs, struck out 4 Toronto batters, walked 1 Toronto batter for New York for the team that wears the pinstripes.

New York is now headed out on the road for eight games starting with the Chicago Whitesox on Thursday for a four game series but this question remains will they actually get to play their four game series against the Chicago White Sox because the Chicago White Sox game against Cleveland Guardians was called off because positive Covid -19 outbreak with in Cleveland organization. Before New York the team that wears the pinstripes left Yankee Stadium Thursday winning pitcher Jameson Taillon who also happens be the teams union rep hadn’t heard anything about Cleveland’s outbreak so he didn’t know if that could affect his teams upcoming series verses Chicago Whitesox.
