Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and the Blue Jays bats will look to keep swinging a hot bat as they continue a three-game series at Yankee Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Blue Jays (82-59) continue their push for the AL East crown and increased their lead over the New York Yankees (78-63) to four games. Toronto has not won a division crown since 2015 and got some breathing room after Friday’s 7-1 romp.
Guerrero tied a career high with four hits in the opener, including his 16th career homer in New York.

Toronto has now won seven of its last eight meetings with the Yankees and eight of 11 overall this season. Alongside Guerrero, Bo Bichette continued his own surge Friday with three hits, extending his on-base streak to 19 games.
Toronto will send Chris Bassitt (11-7, 4.10 ERA) to the mound Saturday. Initially slated for Sunday’s finale, Bassitt will try to rebound from a stretch in which he is 0-3 with a 4.84 ERA over his last seven starts. The veteran right-hander, however, has excelled against the Yankees in his career, going 5-1 with a 2.26 ERA in eight starts.
